Soriano XBat Auction

[allstarsplus]

I love these "game used" XBats with the Dominican flag (lol) plus this is a Private Auction with a bid!

Alfonso Soriano since his first days with the Yankees thru Texas and Washington almost always uses a Blonde SAM bat. With that said, when he had a brief slump this year in Toronto he started using a Max bat and LS with his heaving coating of pine tar on the label.

Re: Soriano XBat Auction

I'm gonna assume that when you say "game used" and (lol) you are with the line of thought that these X-Bats with the flags on them are retail issued and not used by major leaguer's.I have heard this from many people.Here is the proof against that.......

Re: Soriano XBat Auction

I think the perception is the Pujols bats with the dominican flag on it are the retail xbats and have never been used in a game. I haven't heard this about the manny bats

Re: Soriano XBat Auction

all i know about xbats are I can call them and order a pujols bat identical to what he used in games that why i will never buy a xbat. I ordered a Jim Thome Xbat from them 2 years ago its the same thing he would use in a agame they even told me what model he had ordered from them

Jon,

Can I say thank you some 3 years later for posting those Manny Pics with the Dom Flag on the Xbat. I have a 2006/07 Manny gamer Xbat with the flag I knew was good however never coud find a photo of him with the bat exposing the flag.

Very cool, and very much appreciated.
