The Houston Astros called up Jose Altuve in 2011 out of Double-A with about 60 games left in the season. He batted .276 (61 for 221) with 10 doubles two home runs 26 runs scored and 12 RBI. It would be his only MLB season to date in which he has played less than a 100 games for the Astros. Between 2012 and 2014 the 5'6" Altuve has averaged 152.3 games and has set the tone for hustle for his young Astros team with a batting average of .306 and a stellar 41.3 steals per season. The hustle Altuve has displayed culminated with a career season in 2014 becoming the first Astro to win a batting title. Altuve led the entire Major Leagues in batting average (.341) and hits (225) and tied for an NL-best 56 stolen bases. In 2015 the fans voted Altuve as the National League's starting second baseman at the All-Star game.
Altuve used and cracked this clear-finished maple Tucci Lumber TL-238-LDMX professional model bat on May 8 2014. The bat shows moderate signs of game use including baseball stitch impressions blue ink transfers as well as cleat and rack marks on the barrel. The bats lower handle is covered with Mota stick and the knob boasts a Tucci Lumber manufacturer sticker marked 27 in black marker.
