BMH - Evan Longoria early bat order

[brianborsch]

Hello Brian!

Did Evan ever order or receive black LVS M9 I13 bats with his name in block letters and Louisville Slugger stamped below rather than his team name?

Thanks in advance for your help!

His first order for black bats was 10/27/2007 in block letter.

Hey Brian,

Thanks for the detail! Was his team name below the name plate or do you do 1st orders with the Louisville Slugger below the name plate?

See pics attached below. Is this a legit game issued bat or bat made for Evan?

Oh I forgot to add the bat has a cupped barrell if that helps. I know Longoria's bats now are typically uncupped.

Yeah it was Louisville Slugger. They were ordered through his agent, only six of them.
