CIRCA 1950 HILLERICH AND BRADSBY JOHNNY PESKY GAME BASEBALL BAT N/R
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:5382596 | Modified Item: No |
| Team: Boston Red Sox |
Here is a Circa 1950 Johnny Pesky game used baseball bat. Pesky played for the Red Sox for 10 seasons from 1942-52 and later with the 53/54 Detroit Tigers and finished his career with the Washington Senators. Pesky was a second baseman and should be considered in the future for HOF status....his lifetime batting avg. is .307.....and any Red Sox fan can tell you about "PESKY's POLE" down the right field line.
The bat shows tons of use--it's hammered!! It is 35 inche...s in length and currently weighs 32.9 oz. The bat has ball marks/rack marks and also a vintage screw to secure the 10 inch crack which extends from the handle on up. (Pictures should answer most questions here) Bat may have been "scored" on the handle but I am no expert on this so am just stating it as a possibility....a little loss of wood on the barrel end perhaps caused by moisture at some point. The model number stamped into the knob is G 67. This bat matches the specifications that Pesky would have used listed in the Mastro Net Reference Guide Book by Dave Bushing. No signs of a players number...even under special lighting are seen on either end. The bat dates to Pesky's playing days with the Red Sox (around 1950-51) according to 2 bat authenticators based on the center label stamping.....a valuable collectable for sure!
