In an era dominated by the long ball, players like Mark Grace sometimes get overlooked because of their modest home run totals. Make no mistake though, hitting better than .300 every year and playing a near flawless first base is just as important to a ball club as swatting the ball out of the yard. The first of two items in this offering, is a Diamond Collection Cubs 1993 Grace batting practice jersey. It exhibits Grace's # 17 on the reverse, the Cubs logo on the left breast and shows moderate use. Grace's game used Rawlings, model 256B from the 1993 season, shows evidence of tremendous game use with a repaired handle crack. The bat is signed in blue sharpie and grades a 9. Manufacturer: Rawlings, Model Number: 256B, Labeling Period: 1993, Length: 34 in, Weight: 32 oz, Wood: Ash, Finish: Standard. The bat and autograph each comes with a letter from PSA/DNA.
