Bat is solid, but it has some wear from storage and something red got against it and left a mark. I havnt tried to clean it. It's not cracked, nor does it appear to have ever hit a ball. The scuff marks are mainly from storage. Please see pics for condition before you purchase. This is the American TV Personality Chip Gaines from the TV show Fixer Upper.
