And it's the self proclaimed "greatest bat ever sold on EBAY!"

LOL :-)

Nice bat but i don't know about the greatest bat ever on ebay.That price is high also.

[David-A]

For accuracy, the seller stated to me through email that Pujols said this is his best bat ever. I would agree to disagree that it is even the best Pujols bat to hit eBay in the last four months. The one which sold for $4000+ a few months ago was a rookie autographed Pujols with a letter from Mike Shannon's CBC Charity night from 2001.

The autographed rookie game used bat was the exact same Pujols bat (with an exact photo match) from Pujols' 2001 UD Reserve rookie card. He also seems to be using the same bat in his Upper Deck rookie card. Pujols played his first 6 MLB games on the road making it likely the bat was used to hit one or more of his first Home Runs in the Major Leagues.

Maybe Pujols really said it was his best bat ever. I would argue that most Pujols collectors would rather have the Pujols rookie bat which may have hit his first HR in the big leagues. If Pujols really said what the seller says he did then maybe a better description would say that it is "the best Pujols bat to ever hit ebay in my opinion."

As far as the price....I bet if he lowered the minimum to $3500 he would get the bid.

Far to high IMHO for a bat of a current player, who will generate hundreds of more game used bats is his career, and not even used in an MLB game. I wouldn't recommend this to ANYONE for anything near $4,000 or whatever they want.

Well I will say this its not from a Mjor League game which would make it even more rare its frm a World Baseball Classic game similar to an Olympics game. Which who knows if there will be another?

So to me i think it makes it more valuable maybe not for $4000 but more valuable then a Major League game?

I agree, this bat should sell for more than a regular season Pujols bat, just as a Pujols game used bat from the World Series would command a premium price.

Too bad the bat was not labeled with "Dominican Republic" in place of the St. Louis Cardinals on the barrel.

During the WBC, Pujols had 21 at bats with 6 hits, 1 HR and 3 rbi's, could this be the HR bat?

I have dealt with the sellers of this bat before and their good people, they have a Dominican MLB player connection and get legit Dominican players game used items from time to time.

did sam bat go back to rideou or whatever crusher? they had wilson the last couple years. this pujols bat has the rideou crusher on it. kinda weird if they are still using the wilson logo under his name.

Here's a photo of Barry Bonds holding a Sam bat from 3-24-06 and 4-9-06, the Wilson logo is on the bat.

Maybe the players have a choice of the Wilson Logo or Rideau Crusher.
