Bobby Thigpen was known quite a bit more for his arm than his bat, but here's a chance to own a bat by the former closer. This Louisville Slugger model C271 bat was used during the 1990 season, where Thigpen set a then-record 57 saves. Thigpen registered a sparkling 1.83 ERA during that season. This ASh wood bat that measures 32.75 inches and weighs 30 ounces is uncracked and shows outstanding use throughout. Thigpen's number 37 is written with a black marker on the knob. This bat has been authenticated by bat expert John Taube of PSA/DNA and comes with a full LOA.
