ITEM DESCRIPTION

||||||||||||
2005 will always be remembered as "The year of redemption in the Windy City". That was the season in which the Chicago White Sox shocked the baseball world after winning the American League pennant en route to their first World Series since 1959. The forty-six year gap between appearances was the longest in American League history and offered a rare opportunity for the long-overdue emancipation of "Shoeless Joe" Jackson and his infamous "Black Sox" of 1919. Offered are five bats issued for use during the Series but never were allowed their moment in the spotlight on the biggest stage in baseball, as such they are all in NRMT, unused condition. Included are bats intended for: 1) A.J. Pierzynski- Model C243, black finish (34"). 2) Pablo Ozuna- Model H238C, unfinished maple (33.5"). 3) Carl Everett- Model C243, blonde ash (34"). 4) Aaron Rowand- Model M356C, blonde ash (33"). 5) Paul Konerko- Model C271C, black finish (34"). Each is complete with "2005 World Series" stamping on the barrel.
