1996 Bernie Williams New York Yankees Signed & Game Used Bat (PSA)
Bernie Williams was an outstanding center fielder for the New York Yankees. The Puerto Rican switch-hitter played his entire 16-year career (1991-2006) with the Bronx Bombers, hitting .297 lifetime, with 287 home runs. Williams was a 4-time All-Star, a 4-time Gold Glove winner, a 4-time World Series Champion, and a winner of a batting title, a Silver Slugger Award, and an ALCS MVP. The offered 1996 bat is a Rawlings Adirondack, with "Big Stick/Bernie Williams/ Yankees" printed on the barrel. The bat length is 34.5", and the weight is 30.9 ounces. In the 1996 season, Williams hit .306 with 29 home runs and 102 RBIs. The bat has a hollowed end, and a black finish. It exhibits fine wear, with ball marks, scuff marks, and some tiny nicks. The bat has a small crack, in the middle, since repaired. Williams has signed the bat on the barrel in neat script, "Bernie Williams Jr.", with a silver marker. Williams is now a professional jazz guitarist, and in 2009 he was nominated for a Latin Grammy. He was very popular with Yankee fans, and he could have been even more popular in New York. "If Mets fans who hate Bernie Williams ever met him," said sportswriter Barry Stanton, "they'd love him." The game used, autographed bat comes with a PSA LOA for the autograph, and the bat makes a fine Bernie Williams remembrance.
