What is this writing on the bat knob? 31.5?

Is this the weight? Do players write this on the knob?

Regards, Tony

Yes thats the bat weight, I think that might be from the factory. Since 2007 its been a common feature on most Arod bats I have seen.

Ounces of "juice" to take before game time. Just kidding. My bat from '08 has 31.8. Your bat is awsome! Is MVP starting to use MLB authentication for their stuff? I think that makes the bat even better.

Great bat!!!

Cordova i'm not an english major and my typing gets even worse when I type here on the forum usually because I am in a rush to get my thoughts out. But what is mispelled and bad grammar on the LOA?

I read it over 5 times and unless my eyes are going bad I did not see one problem.

Instead of "during" they wrote "durNing" ... and the use of "myself" is incorrect. Maybe it is just myself, but those things tend to cheapen the value and question the integrity of the item, or at least the company selling it.

... not to mention little things like using "that this" instead of "this," missing hyphens, missing period at the end of the quote ....

Old editors (and proofreaders) never die ... and we can never stop noticing these things! It is a disease ... habit ... instinct ....

I shouldn't be so picky. Maybe these are just honest SNAFUs for MVP .... :D
