Great catch on the Dugan bat!! Beautiful.
Wade Boggs was,my favorite player growing up. This is my favorite bat I own of his. I included a picture of the barrel which is powered with seam marks.

This is the only one I own now. I had to scale back my collection once kids started school. They are little money pits

The grains on those Boggs bats in the case are beautiful! His bats are works of Art.

Ash. And it's called "Grain Checking". Happens with heavy, repeated use. The wood splits slightly at the major contact point(s). A killer Gamer.

Well said. It is an ash bat- 86-89 labeling. Well before maple came into popularity. It is a 9-grain bat. There is slight checking on back of barrel, which is what retired it, so great call!

Oh my, that Boggs is beautiful. Please post any and all other Boggs bats you have.

This rack has 11 different Wade Boggs bats in it. Anything from a SGA when he was with Pawtucket to store models, promo bats, game issued, and prostock models.
