Here is my second photo match. It is the bat he used in the episode of Pros vs Joes he appeared in. It was the bat he used in the HR Derby. Ive told this story before on the forum, but long story short: Got a call from Canseco's agent the night after his first game in the Golden Baseball League. He had went 0-4 and the reasoning was because the team only had 34" bats and Canseco was accustomed to using 36" bats. His agent knew I had over 40 game bats of Canseco's so he called to ask if Jose could borrow a couple until the ones he had Rawlings making came in. I said sure and sent him a list. Jose picked two and I overnighted them to Canseco's home. He eventually would hit homeruns with my SAM bat. Somehow they got stolen during the season so Jose sent me these to replace my two. He signed them, "To Todd, Thanks for Everyhing. Jose Canseco #33". Later I discovered these were used in the show so he sent me a CAO stating that. One of my favorite pieces next to my 400th HR game used ball and bat. Enjoy!

Thanks manram. I would kill for that jersey! I have no idea what happened to it. My white whale is Canseco's 400th hr uniform to go with my bat and ball. The helmet is at the HOF.

By the way. One of the bats that was stolen was one I purchased directly from Canseco. It was the bat he used in his tryout for the dodgers in 2004. If anyone ever sees this bat please contact me. It was stolen andi would really love it back. I still have the coa for it.

Thanks

Hey there John, I've sent you like ten emails! What have you been up to? Are you interested at all in selling the transfers or the bat I sold you back to me? Let me know if you are. Good to hear from you.

Thanks, Todd
