A high grade Lou Gehrig game used bat will be up for bid this fall and what could be better than seeing Cal Ripken Jr. take a few cuts with it?
Goldin Auctions will bring the PSA 9 rated stick to its catalog in October.
Recently in Chicago, A Piece of the Game, the new WGN-TV series that features historic sports memorabilia, shot a segment on the bat featuring the man who broke Gehrig’s record.
Across the ages, from one Iron Man to another, the bat was special, even for a guy who has gotten to see and touch many historic artifacts inside the Baseball Hall of Fame.
