"The Machine", Albert Pujols, wielded this Marucci AP5-M Custom Cut in game play during his 2009 MVP award winning season. A terrific example of the power and pure torque generated from Pujols' monstorous swing, this bat is highlighted by excellent usage including numerous impact/stich markings, a light coat of pine tar, and a crack along the neck. Capping off this unique war club is a beautiful autograph from Pujols, boldly penned across the black barrel in gold metallic marker, with Pujols adding "Game Used" along with his autograph to further solidify the bat's usage. Acquired direct from Pujols and accompanied by an assortment of rock-solid authenticity, including a COA and Grade of G/U 8.5 from John Taube of PSA/DNA; a COA and matching hologram from the Pujols Family Foundation; and an authentication hologram from Major League Baseball (MLB).
