Lenny Dykstra 1993 Homerun bat ???
http://cgi.ebay.com/Len-Dykstra-Auto...QQcmdZViewItem
Bat is a pre 90's HB so how could this be?
Dysktra used almost exclusively two tone HB (galen handle, brown barrel) bats w/ his years w/ the Phillies!

After a closer glance this bat looks like an 80-83 era bat.

Re: Lenny Dykstra 1993 Homerun bat ???
Forum Readers-
Dykstra sold his World Series road jersey after the 1993 World Series at a big card show. John Taube was there, as well as several big dealers. I purchased the road jersey from a dealer who purchased it directly from Dykstra with a LOA. He also sold some 1993 game bats, all of which were 2-tone, brown with natural handle. All had LOA's with them from Dykstra.
This bat on Ebay was not like any of those offered at the show or any I have seen from the 1993 season.
FYI

David-
I'm not aware of him sending them back, however, the 1993 World Series gamers he was selling were not stamped with the World Series or NLCS info. They appeared to be regular season bats. They were his usual 2-tone (Model B267?) with his usual 4 on the knob. I also remember a major auction house offering a single lot that contained quite a few of his bats from the Series, all autographed and the game in which they were used against Toronto noted by Dykstra. None were stamped with World Series 1993 or similar. I think that the auction house may have been Lelands.

For what it's worth,the autograph does not resemble exemplars of Dykstra.

I have contacted the seller of this bats informing him this cannot possibly be the bat that Dykstra used in the 1993 WS and waiting a response.

No response from this seller. I sent a followup email inviting him to the forum to address our concerns w/ the bat.
