Abner Doubleday (1819 - 93) // America’s P(l)ast(ic)ime, 2015 // Molded polyethylene (plastic) || Stop right there. I know what you’re thinking. But no, tis not a typo, but rather a statement. Doubleday may have entered the realm of the unknown in the 19th century, but it is dishonest to claim anyone but the Union General and inventor of baseball is the progenitor of these 38 inches of molded yellow plastic. Despite the fact that this particular bat was molded in the fall of 2015. Rest in Peace, Abner.
