Hello everyone; I'm wondering if anyone here can answer this question for me. I was recently given a supposedly Rafael Palmeiro game used bat that was purchased at an auction about 10-12 years ago. The bat is an H238. It looks like a gamer to me, however, the number "18" is written on the knob. Raffy has always worn #25 (though he did wear #6 I believe for 1 season with Texas), so this just doesn't make any sense to me. Is this bat a fake? Can anyone provide an explanation? Pictures are below, thanks everyone for all your help.
