    Something's Fishy with CSI game used bats!

    Fellow forum members,

    I have noticed for over a year now that a lot of game used bats from California Sports Investments have some similar traits when it comes to ball marks. Check out the following pics of bats offered on ebay by CSI in the last year.

    You tell me how all these bats used by various MLB players on different teams have almost identical superficial ballmarks and no deep seam indentations to the barrel area? Is this a coincidence, I highly doubt it! I await your comments.

    Heres are the links to the ebay auctions:

    Here's three more! Notice the Vladimir Guerrero bat, where are the deep seam indentations? I own two Vlad game used bats and they both have the deepest seam marks I have ever seen on a bat.

    The ball marks on the Bako and Tejada bats indicate they were used by a right handed batter. Yet both players bat left handed.

    Those marks must be from that new "mud" they're using.

    Thats who I was reffering to in my post about the Ripken bat. Every bat I have seen them offer has had the same "golf ball" size ball marks.

    Yes sir, you are correct. I read the stats of the person next to Tejada. My mistake.

    Not only are the ball marks the same but the bats are presented in the same fashion in the photographs.Seems the whole thing is planned.Is anyone willing to contact Ron fron CSI to inquire?
