Ian Kinsler’s game-used personalized Louisville Slugger (Hillerich & Bradsby) Genuine C243 baseball bat, used by Kinsler as a member of the Detroit Tigers in a game against the New York Yankees on August 7, 2014. Kinsler’s uniform number, “3,” is marked on the knob end and the barrel top. In very good to fine condition, with obvious expected signs of use; the barrel bears affixed Major League Baseball and PSA/DNA authenticity labels, both of which identify the bat as being game-used by Kinsler, with the latter grading the bat as “PSA/DNA GU 9.5.” The Yankees won the game 1-0, with Kinsler batting 2 for 4. Racking up hits was a common occurrence for Kinsler in 2014, when he led the entire Major League in both plate appearances (726) and total at-bats (684). His 100 runs and 188 base hits earned him his fourth All-Star Game selection.
Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from PSA/DNA, which grades the bat as “PSA/DNA GU 9.5” and concludes that “the bat is authentic, and was game used by Kinsler during the referenced labeling period.”
