Re: Homerun bats

Yoenis Cespedes Game Used bat - used and Photomatched to career home run #79 in Chicago. Wanted to pick one up this year given he may only be a tiger for this year and his bat patterns are weird (switching up during games). Now to get it signed and inscribed.

Re: Homerun bats

This one was tough but probably my favorite new pick up because of how fun this guy is to watch. Jose Iglesias game used bat used for his 1st and only home run of the season thus far. This bat was a tough tough match because the ball marks turned orange, due to fading and possibly repeated contact because this bat is hammered. Whats also unusual is Iggy stopped using this bat, switched to another and then back to this bat after his alternate broke.

Re: Homerun bats

This Matt Kemp's 1st MLB home run bat as a Padre. He hit the home run on April 18th and the bat was broken on April 20th. I had some interest in the bat but I offered it to the community first and it was purchased. Fortunately the buyer backed out and I was able to pick it up. It is unique to me because it is a 2012 model Rawlings bat that he must have had lying around for some time. Here are the matches.

Re: Homerun bats

I have to give big thanks to Jay (jsr418) and Rich (itsgameused) for their roles in helping me obtain then match the now crown jewel of my collection: Robinson Cano's 183rd career home run bat.

This broken in three bat was mlb authenticated to the 9th inning on 4/22/13. special thanks to itsgameused for matching both the break and cano's 4th inning solo homer. Here are pictures of what the bat looked like before and after repair and photomatch.
