Is this considered flame tempered? I think so but want another opinion. Thanks.

Re: Eddie Murray bat on eBay?
Looks like a nice Powerized model from 1980 - 83. Murray did order R161 during his career, but you should check order records to be sure. It's definitely a game model bat, but it's very hard to see if it has any game use from those bad pictures.Mike

Re: Eddie Murray bat on eBay?
I'd ask for a picture of the knob, as Murray usually placed an ornate (dual color; outlined, etc.) "33" on his gamers....Comment

Re: Eddie Murray bat on eBay?
Well, I asked about the knob and I knew about how Murray liked to outline the number. Well, the seller said it was blank. I had to pass as I just don't see much wear and of course the lousy pics didn't help. Only went for $202 so others seemed to have the same opinion.Comment

what we know:
36 length 36 oz
R161 Model
Powerized
early 80's
seems the bat went on the cheap. can we blame it on the poor photo.Regards,

Re: Eddie Murray bat on eBay?
The factory records have R161 in 36 in. 36 oz. but that is why the flame tempered was important. I do think the bat is game issued, but I just don't like the lack of Murray characteristics. No tar, tape, ball marks, number on knob, etc. And the poor pics didn't help matters.Comment

Bat matches H & B records for orders in mid-season 1983 and early 1984.
