Dustin Pedroia Marucci block-letter (full name) model ("DO35") bat dating from the Boston Red Sox's 2013 World Championship season. Graded GU 9 by PSA/DNA. The black cupped-end bat, which is not cracked, displays evidence of outstanding use along its entire length, including ball marks (with blue-ink transfers) and a heavy coat of pine tar on the handle. Pedroia's uniform number ("15") is stamped in the knob, along with the bat's date of manufacture ("3/20/13"), length (33.5 inches) and original factory weight (30.5 ounces). Pedroia batted .301 with 9 home runs and 84 RBI in 2013 to help Boston win its third World Championship in ten years. Those numbers also helped earn him his third top-ten finish in the MVP balloting at season's end. A former Rookie of the Year (2007) and American League MVP (2008), Pedroia has also won four Gold Glove Awards and has been selected to four All-Star Games. This is an outstanding Pedroia game-used bat dating from one of his finest overall seasons. Length: 33.5 inches. Weight: 31.1 ounces. Full LOA from John Taube of PSA/DNA. Reserve $300. Estimate (open).
