Description
Since it’s inception in the American League back in 1973 the debate has raged whether or not the DH was good for baseball or merely allowed past-their-prime players to linger. There is no denying, however, that a number of great hitters have made their mark as a Designated Hitter, and back on July 10 of this season one of the best took his spot atop the list. With an opposite field double in Seattle, Red Sox slugger David Ortiz clubbed DH hit no. 1,689 and passed Harold Baines to become the game’s All Time Designated Hitter Hits Leader. The Limited Edition bat features vivid, wrap-around photography and pertinent dates and data relevant to the milestone. This very special commemorative bat celebrates David Ortiz’s accomplishment, and is a fitting tribute to his impact both on the game and the position. Red Sox fans love “Big Papi” and will surely generate strong demand for this special collectible honoring their Boston icon.
