I have a Sam Bat, dated 01 05 05. It has the model number SG1 on barrel, then Jose Lopez's name, and then Wilson? I am assuming Wilson Sporting Goods as it is the same font and style. What was the relationship between Sam Bats and WIlson?

Re: SAM BATS -question-
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Sam Bat is not owned by Willson. It was founded by Sam Holman in 1997 and was owned independently by him until 2007 when it became owned by four individuals, none of which have any association with Wilson. The confusion probably derives from a distribution deal Sam Bat had with Wilson some time ago, in which Wilson had their logo added to the bat, although Wilson never played any part in the ownership or manufacturing of the product.[1] (Sbajn (talk) 18:17, 19 March 2009 (UTC))
Agreed and true. The section about Wilson purchasing Sam Bat needs to be corrected. I personally evaluated Sam Bat for potential purchase in early 2007 and had numerous discussions and in person meetings with Sam Holman, Sam Bat's founder. --Dnewman676 (talk) 00:20, 9 May 2010 (UTC)User:dnewman676"

Thanks for the info. I went to the Sam Bats website and could find no mention of that relationship. Should have used the trusty Wikipedia!!!Comment
