Our friend Suave asked if I could post some photos for him. He was wondering if people think this bat is a photomatch.
Photomatch?

Re: Photomatch?
Kylehess I will send some pictures to you later tonight so you can give your opinion I do believe though if you pay close attention to the Getty Photo and judge by the markings on the bat and the locations of the Markings it is a dead on hit.Comment

Re: Photomatch?
That bat looks like something Julio has been using since his rookie year. It looks good at first glance, but the handle shot should help, and one with the barrel in the same position as Franco's holding it.Comment

Re: Photomatch?
I think it's really close but the bat in the photo seems to have more pine tar covering the oval Rawlings label verses the bat in the Julio Franco photograph. Also I see what looks like a black rack mark on the end of the barrel which is not present on the actual bat. However it's not say the photo was taken earlier and the bat was used more afterwards. I think that's one thing to consider with photo matching is the timing of the photo of the item was taken and the time the item got into your hands. If you are looking for a bat which exemplifies the type of use on a Julio Franco 2006 bat then I'd say you definitely have a match.
Happy Holidays to all.

Re: Photomatch?
I just noticed the white scratch going across the bat in the getty photo and the bat in the photo. I 'd say that would be another thing which would make this a photo match.
