Seller claims "The Blue Jays were losing the sixth gam of the '93 World Series 6-5 to the Phillies with one out, two men on, in the ninth as Joe batter against Mitch Williams. The count went 2-2. Joe swung this bat and smashed the ball over the left field fence to win the game 8-6 and the series 4 games to 2."

I emailed the seller to mention that the actual bat is on display in the HOF.

Also mentioned that the bat Joe used to hit the dinger was a blond bat and not black like the Carter model they were selling.

Nice.
