LS Bat article

[Vintagedeputy]

While thumbing through a 1993 White Sox program, I stumbled upon an article about the making of LS bats. The article has photos, player stories, and great info including model numbers, player traits etc.

Here's a quote from former player Bill Melton:

"I'd tell them that I wanted a Frank Robinson R161 head with a P72 handle on it, they'd make it for me......"

It was a great read. I'll be happy to make copies of the article for anyone who wants one. Email me at deputy7621@aol.com. All I ask is that you send me a postage paid envelope to cover the postage.

Thanks!
Jim

Jim, if you have the capability, perhaps you could scan the article and post it on this site. David

I have a flatbed scanner and thought about doing that. I'm not sure where to put it though. Is there is a place here to post it?

Jim,

I received the article yesterday. Thank you. There is nothing better than reading about players' relationships with their bats. As a Bo Jackson game used bat collector it was great to read about the "B016" model which was created by combinining the barrell and handle of two existing LS models.

Thanks again,
