Louisville Slugger Powerized Genuine S44 player model baseball bat has been hand-signed by Yankees legend, Thurman Munson (D. 1979)!
Thurman Munson, the esteemed catcher for the New York Yankees, enjoyed a stellar career marked by his exceptional leadership, defensive prowess, and clutch hitting. Debuting in 1969, Munson quickly established himself as a cornerstone of the Yankees, earning the American League Rookie of the Year award in 1970. Known for his fierce competitiveness and durability, he won three Gold Glove awards and was a seven-time All-Star. Munson's leadership qualities were recognized when he was named team captain in 1976, the first Yankee to hold the title since Lou Gehrig. He played a crucial role in leading the Yankees to back-to-back World Series championships in 1977 and 1978, earning the AL MVP award in 1976. Munson's career was tragically cut short by a plane crash in 1979, but his legacy endures as one of the greatest catchers in baseball history.
The autograph includes an official Beckett Authentication Services hologram and matching LOA for authenticity purposes.
