As part of a Mother’s Day campaign to increase awareness for breast cancer MLB granted special permission for players to use the colorful bats for as part of a weeklong program to raise money for the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Afterwards, the players signed the game bats, which were collected by MLB and auctioned off. This particular specimen (NRMT) was issued to Roger Clemens, and though he never took a swing with it, he did inscribe the barrel, "”Rocket" Roger Clemens Cy7" in near perfect black sharpie (9/10). Certainly the most rare "authorized" bat ever to be allowed into play.
