Mets Garth Brooks Rawlings bat

If anyone has a Rawlings Adirondack Garth Brooks model game bat available I'd be interested in buying it. Brooks played in spring training with the Mets during 2000 I believe.

Thanks

It took almost 5 years but I finally found not only a Garth Brooks 2000 Mets bat but a game issued jersey. I say game issued jersey because the team wore mostly BP jerseys both home and away during 2000 spring training. The jersey is a regular season game issued because Brooks didn't make the team that year

That is VERY cool. Garth also played for the Royals for spring training around that time. I was lucky enough to get him to sign a baseball while out in Mesa watching my Cubbies play the Royals. He is such a genuinely nice guy, must have signed for 200 people after the game, posed for pictures simply a great guy!! GREAT PICKUP!!!

Thanks. He did ST w/the Padres in 01 the next year I think.

Not to mention that #1 was already claimed by a former 1986 World Series hero...
