Banished from baseball for his indiscretions, Charlie Hustle will always be remembered for never giving less than 100% on the playing field. A sweet offering from the man who broke Ty Cobb's lifetime record in hits and games played. Used around the time he collected his second straight batting title, this Hillerich & Bradsby S222 bears the marks of a gamer, ready for use, although exhibiting only light use with some nicks and marks on the barrel. Handle shows some pine tar residue. "14" written in black marker on both ends. Perfect black signature on the barrel is vintage ink, obtained in person at the time this bat was retired.
