George Brett embodied the ultimate "Franchise Player," spending his entire career with the Kansas City Royals and leading the team to six American League pennants and two World Series appearances. This classic Brett gamer is one of the nicest examples that we have encountered with a healthy helping of his trademark pine tar, which extends from the knob to centerbrand. It shows tremendous use with ball and cleat marks visible on the barrel. "GB5" has been written on the knob in black marker. Manufacturer: Hillerich & Bradsby, Model Number: C271, Labeling Period: 1986-89, Length: 33.75, Weight: 30 ounces, Wood: Ash, Finish: Natural. The bat comes with a letter from PSA/DNA.
