Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
The idea of a photomatch is that there has to be a unique mark or trait that makes is this specific bat. So as it is right now, it isn't a photomatch in my opinion. If you can, you should try and take a screenshot of the at bat and look for marks on the bat, that's your best bet. The idea is that the hologram is only to help you with finding the day, but it can't be used to call something definitive photomatch. Ricardo

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Im going to have to disagree, when the hologram specifies the inning and game, and I see a bat cracked in half that is identical to the bat I purchased.... odds are there wasn't another bat cracked in half that inning.... But hey marks are marks right.

I, nor to I think anyone else, is questioning that it's the same bat, I'm sure it is. As you said, another bat wasn't cracked that same inning, no question. But to call it a photomatch must be a distinct characteristic that differentiates it from all the other Phoenix bats he used.Ricardo Montoya

Ridiculous. Everybody knows it is the same bat but you all want to nitpick every little detail. I am pretty sure the differentiating characteristic is the missing handle. Unless Miggy doesn't use handles. He matched his bat to a photo. I think that makes it a "photomatch". Just because he didn't match an ink transfer or rack streak doesnt change that. Spatan congrats on your photomatch and hopefully everybody that disagrees can find a more constructive use of their time.Russell Wuerffel

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
Chill out. I don't think anybody is doubting the bat is genuine or if the bat is the same bat. That is not what is being debated here. The definition of a photomatch is definitively matching a game used piece to a photo or screen grab. This one would seem to be a pretty simple one to pull, but it might mean removing the tape and comparing the crack itself.
You're right, photomatches are nitpicking...that's kind of the point. As it stands, the photos provided do not consist of a photomatch.

Re: Post Your Photo-matched Game-used Items Here
The point of a photo match is that it stands alone; so, while after considering the photo and the hologram one can say with pretty much 100% certainty that the Cabrera bat is the same one broken in the given at bat, a photo match should be able to identify the bat as the same one without any other supporting information. As it stands right now, the hologram is needed to show that the bat is the same one (although as noted, removing the tape would offer a much better shot at a photo match). Mind you, that's just about the best ever style match you could get.
