[wllump52]

I am a Giants bat collector so the nickname bats I own include:

Rick Reschel -- "Big Daddy" -- LVS

Jeffrey Leonard-- "Hac Man" Worth and LVS

Kevin Mitchell- "Mitch" --LVS

Willie McCovey -- "Big Mac" H & B

Candy Maldonado -- "Candy Man" LVS

As a Mets collector but not a very big bat collector, I have managed to add 2 to my collection over the past couple of years --

a Todd Hundley bat that contains both his name and the "HOT ROD" nickname and an Edgardo Alfonzo bat with "FONZIE" on it. I have also seen Alfonzo bats labeled "FONZY" before too.

Not new additions to the list we have running here however.

I would however like to add a non-Mets bat to my collection because I always thought it was hilarious -- a Todd Helton bat with the label "Hillbilly"... John Taube has one for sale currently, but there are quite a few items higher on my wish list than this one...

Jeff Scott,
Cool Cards bats! Love the nicknames.
PS, have enjoyed checking in on your blog occasionally. Good stuff.

Awhile back on eBay (too long ago for the auction to be viewed) I saw a game used Robinson Cano Rawlings bat that had "ROCA" on it (for RObinson CAno, I'm guessing). I don't know if it was brought up here or not, but has anyone seen a Cano nickname bat with ROCA?

Kind Regards,

Ron.

I used to work with the Marucci Bat Company. I'll see if I can get some interesting info on nicknames put on bats for Major Leaguers. Got to help make a big batch of bats for Beltran last year, which was cool.
