Baseball's newest home king Barry Bonds stunned the nation with his historic home run chase during the 2001 season. An eight time Gold Glove award winner and five hundred home run hitter he has certainly filled the big shoes left for him by his father Bobby and his godfather Willie Mays. This spectacular bat shows the labeling period 1986-89 and dates from the earliest time period in Bonds Career. It is a 33.5 inch, 32.5 ounce, H238 model Louisville Slugger. The bat shows evidence of heavy game use with a thick coat of pine tar and a handle crack. There are ball , hit, cleat, and racks marks visible on the barrel. Bonds' jersey number "24" appears on the knob inside of a design that has been hand drawn. Without question one of, if not the, finest bonds gamers available predating the many that he has made available.
