With this Rawlings Adirondack 154 A, Phillies Hall of Fame third baseman, Mike Schmidt hit career home runs 473 & 474 in the summer of ‘86. Shows great use with a multitude of large whole ball marks around the sweet spot. Can you guess which ones are number 473 & 474? Heavily pine tarred handle is slightly cracked at the top. Most interesting are the blue sharpie circular marks within the Rawlings logo with numbers underneath, in the hand of Schmidt, annotating the home runs hit with this piece of lumber. This labeling is typical fashion for Schmidt. Additionally there is a piece of tape affixed to the bat’s barrel, which reads, “473 474” also in Schmidt’s hand. Knob, stamped with “154 A 148 C” with handwritten in black marker, his number “20” plus a circle above and an “x” below.
