BMH- Pedroia Question

[kellsox]

BMH-
Wondering how many 2 tone S318 Signature model bats were ordered by Dustin this year. Almost all the bats that I've seen him use are all black except for the 2-tone that he's used in only a couple games this year.
Thanks in advance,
Kelly

Re: BMH- Pedroia Question

What were the colors of the two-tone? He ordered some Gwynn finish bats from us in February, the rest have been black

Re: BMH- Pedroia Question

Appears to be Gwynn finish- The handle is natural and the rest is black. Any idea of how many were shipped to him?
Thanks,

Brian,
do you know during 2006 or 2007 if Pedroia ordered any blond C243 bats and if so what were the sizes. 33 or 33 1/2.
thanks kindly

Re: BMH- Pedroia Question

I am also interesed in this question as I bought this Blonde Pedroia M9 c243 on ebay and want to understand what the heck it is. I see he used a few in april 2007 and possibly thru 2006 and then switched to black m9's.

Matt,
His blond S318 bats from 2006 are 33 1/2 " and I believe his C243 bats were 33 ". Does your C243 measure 33".......

Re: BMH- Pedroia Question

Mac - Thanks for the help. I have not got the bat in the mail yet, but am excited to check it out. I assume he also used similar blonde M9's in the minor leagues, but these should not have the "Boston Red Sox" labelling as this one I bought does. That was my logic for thinking it was late 2006 or April 2007

Re: BMH- Pedroia Question

Since this thread has been revived, I was still wondering the amount of Pedroia Gwynn finish bats that were ordered in 08. Thanks in advance.

Matt,
just checking back to see if you reveived your Pedroia C243 yet and did it measure 33" like mine......

Re: BMH- Pedroia Question

Mac - I just got the bat today and it is indeed 33 inches long and has some good pine tar on it. Pedroia's name and "Boston Red Sox" is foil stamped. Same as yours? From Brian's earlier guidance that Pedey stopped ordering 33 inch bats in 2006, I am thinking this is from that year or earlier. Perhaps the foil stamping on M9s stopped earlier than 2006.

I am still wondering if they would have the "Red Sox" nameplate on a pawsox bat. I am hoping that this only gets added when a player gets called up, so maybe these bats (yours and mine) are from his 2006 call-up. Could also be an Arizona Fall League bat from 2006.

Any other info you have found? My guess is that Brian is enjoying some well-deserved time off, so has not responded to these questions.

Anyone else know when foil stamping stopped on M9's and whether a AAA player gets bats with the Major League team name?

Matt,
Mine Pedroia has #64 on knob and top with lots of pine tar, also has steiner & mlb holos. I had a blond S318 with #64 on both ends which was 33 1/2 " which I tracked down to Sept 06 and he was called up Aug 06. Of course the MLB database is not updated yet, so I can not date the bat as of yet.I will keep you updated.....

Re: BMH- Pedroia Question

It is a good time of year to be off, in fact I'm off the rest of the year. Well, I do have to go in Friday for MLB's training on how they want the maple produced. It should be interesting since none of their ideas have been tested in the Majors. But, that's another story. It's nice to be off since I'm not allowed to take too many days off before November.

Anyway, I'm puzzled by your question on foil stamping. We've always foil stamped the end brand and MLB logo on the back of the bats. We did go to stickers for the CB a few years back.

Brian,
thank you kindly for taking time on your vacation to help us. Could you please help us with the time frame on Pedroia's 33" C243 bats, when were they ordered & is 33" the correct size....Happy Holidays Brian !!!

[BMH]

Re: BMH- Pedroia Question

I don't quite understand what you mean by correct size? He orders both 33in. and 33.5in. That probably doesn't help you much, I know the answer I'm about to give you will make it worse.


These are orders for blonde C243's, I left off the black ones.

2004 = 9
2005 = 20
2006 = 30
2007 = 9
2008 = 6
