Manny Ramirez Boston Red Sox signed game used bat is a MASH model MB1MR24-A dating from the 2005 labeling period. Maple bat with black finish shows excellent use including a handle crack, thick layer of tape at the base of the handle, pine tar residue extending well into the trademark, and chips to the black finish; number 24 is written on the knob (black marker) and cup (silver marker), and bat dimensions are stamped on the knob. Measuring 34.0" and weighing 33.8 ounces, bat has been signed by Ramirez between trademark and barrel stamp in 7-8/10 silver Sharpie along with his uniform number 24. With "Manny being Manny," he powered to 45 homers and 144 RBI in the 2005 season; though he never won the elusive AL MVP award, he finished in the top 10 in voting for eight straight seasons, including '05, and he was the World Series MVP for the Sox in '04. Comes with PSA/DNA LOA grading this a GU 8 (note that the LOA is for the bat only and does not offer an opinion on the signature).
