The greatest switch hitter ever! From the hallowed halls of Cooperstown, comes this terrific 7-inch tall Collection Series 5 figure of one of the most revered Yankees of all time. Mickey Mantle’s name is often included in the ‘greatest player ever’ debate, but there’s certainly no argument that he was the best switch hitter in the history of baseball. And Number 7 will forever hold a place of honor in the hearts of die-hard pinstripe fans the world over. Show your respect and give this legend a special place in your home! ‘The Mick’ swatted 372 home runs as a lefty and 164 from the right side but he was equally dangerous from either side of the plate. The power numbers are somewhat skewed by the fact that most of his at-bats came from the left side against right-handed pitching. His swing was more compact from the left side but more thunderous from the right. Mantle used a 32-ounce bat when hitting lefty and a 36-ounce bat as a righty. His career batting average was .298 but .350 when hitting right handed. The great Mickey Mantle was enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1974.
