Derek Jeter BP Bat?

[BatMan15]

I was just curious if anyone knows whether Jeter uses a different bat in BP than in games or if he uses the same one. I'm not talking about model but the actual bat. Thanks

From what I understand he uses the same bat until it breaks. Every one he's sent back to the factory has be destroyed. Our rep says he'll use the same bat until there are no more hits in it...literally.

I'm not sure I understood the post by BMH. Why would Jeter send bats back to the factory? And from the post it sounded like they were cracked, why would he be sending damaged bats he had used back? Also, if he uses every bat till it cracks, is that to say the only game used Jeter bats would be cracked? Because there are a number of uncracked Jeter bats sold as game used on the market. I'm asking these questions as I may have misunderstood the post information and would appreciate it if you would clarify it for me. Thank you.
