1973-75 Rick Auerbach Brewers/Dodgers H&B Louisville Slugger Professional Model Game Used Bat (MEARS Authentic)

Featured is a Rick Auerbach professional model H&B Louisville Slugger game used bat from his time spent with the Milwaukee Brewers and Los Angeles Dodgers between 1973 & 1975. Model number K75 is stamped on the knob along with a handwritten number 15. Auerbach's teammates Darrel Porter (73 Brewers) and Davey Lopes (74-75 Dodgers) each donned that jersey number indicating possible multi-player use.

This ash bat currently weighs 31 ounces, measures 34" in length and matches known player factory records with a regular knob and round signature model barrel. It exhibits signs of heavy use with ball marks, dead wood, a medium application of pine tar and a handle crack upon which a repair attempt has been made with white athletic tape.

MEARS grades this bat as authentic.
