BMH question about Francoeur Bat

[rfritz10]

I have a quick question for bmh or anyone else who can help regarding a Jeff Francoeur bat. It is a block letter R205 ash model with the tpx logo and mlb logo on the back of the barrel, any idea what year he ordered these and how many? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

would that be a Francoeur Rookie Bat?...Maybe BMH can chime in to confirm a possible rookie bat?

every Jeff bat i have seen that is authentic is a genuine O69. look for writing on the knob to know if it is really jeffs bat. all of his bats have at least his nubmer 7 usually with a saying on the knob also. hope this is a help

i told the person i sold it to i was almost positive it was a francoeur rookie bat and he said he would send it to psa to authenticate it, i assured him if it came back without passing that i would issue a refund or partial refund depending on what he wanted to do. He got it back yesterday from PSA and it was an authentic francoeur block letter rookie bat.

Let me look tomorrow at work, I'm apparently locked out from vpn so I can't find out anything until I get back to work.

He ordered the R205 from the ST of 2005 through the end of 2006. At a quick glance I would say about 150 bats total. If it's a cupped model, then he only ordered it twice in 2005 for a total of 15.
