Barry Bonds Signed Sam Bat Player Model Bonds 2K1 Baseball Bat Inscribed "10-7-01 73HR" (Bonds & PSA)

Sam Bat Player Model Bonds 2K1 baseball bat has been hand-signed and inscribed by Barry Bonds (San Francisco Giants).

On October 7, 2001, Barry Bonds cemented his place in baseball history by hitting his 73rd home run of the season, setting a new single-season record that still stands today. Facing Dennis Springer of the Los Angeles Dodgers at Pacific Bell Park, Bonds crushed a first-inning pitch deep into the right-field stands, igniting a thunderous ovation from the San Francisco crowd. The 2001 season was a spectacle of power and precision, as Bonds shattered Mark McGwire's previous record of 70 home runs set in 1998. His unprecedented slugging percentage of .863 and 177 walks that season remain unmatched. While Bonds' achievement remains a topic of debate due to the era’s connection with performance-enhancing drugs, his 73-homer feat is still one of the most awe-inspiring and polarizing moments in baseball history, symbolizing both the heights of athletic excellence and the complexities of the sport's legacy.

The bat includes an official PSA/DNA hologram and matching COA as well as an official Barry Bonds player hologram for authenticity purposes.
