BMH Ken Griffey Jr Reds Bat Orders
I have a Ken Griffey Jr. Cincinnati Reds bat the bat is a C271 with Griffeys contract Sig and Cincinnati Reds the barrel end is cupped, the bat is NOT a smith finish bat if it is its very light to say the least you can see then grain. Its nothing like a Jeter smith finish bat. It does have the MLB logo on the front side of the barrel in between the centerbrand and his name/model #/Team. My question is, is this a game issued bat or would it have been a souvie bat? I thought he always requested not to have the major league logo put on his bats. Oh and it does NOT have an underline under the 125 in the centerband. Just wondering when it may have been ordered and if it was potential used/issued to him. Thanks in advance!

It's a hard question to answer. I would be nice to see a picture of the bat in question.

Sorry, I've been every where but on the forums of late. As for the bat, it is most likely some sort of souvie bat. Griffey only ordered Smith Finish bats while he was with Cinci. That bat shows too much grain even for a single filler coat.
