I'm really confused by MLB authentication info. MN Twins related.

[punch]

So I picked up this Alexi Casilla bat really cheap at Twinsfest, and the MLB holo reads LH-555798. The look up has some VERY weird info. It says:

Session Name: OAK AT KC
Session Date: August 08, 2009
Autographer:
Authenticator: AUTHENTICATORS, INC.
Additional Information: "ALEXI CASILLA" OLD HICKORY BAT, CRACKED HANDLE, LUKE HOCHEVAR PITCHING

A few things:

1. his bat was in the Twins Pro Shop's collection so if this bat was used by an Athletic player, I'm not sure why they would have it.

2. On the 8-8-2009 OAK vs KC game, Hochevar never pitched. http://www.baseball-reference.com/bo...00908080.shtml

3. Twins did play on 8-8-2009 vs the Tigers, and Alexi did have 2 at bats. http://www.baseball-reference.com/bo...00908080.shtml

So, I'm totally confused. This MLB holo seems to be pretty worthless haha. Anyone seen one this messed up? Or am I totally nuts and it's just fine and I'm missing some key information that's right in front of me.

Just double your money and sell it to me.

Trade?!

So what do you think of this MLB info? You're an expert. They just really mess it up that badly?

If it came back to the Twins Pro Shop, it was used by Alexi. They just messed up somehow. I can't understand how they don't even have the Twins listed as one of the teams though. Weird.

Probably from this game.

They probably just entered under that session date.

He had 2 at bats against Hochevar in that game and used the same bat in both at bats. It had 2 marks that might show up on the bat. Hope this helps.

I was at the the Mariners' team store at the stadium and they had game used items from non-Mariners players. It appeared they tried to have a variety of stuff for fans. Too much Yankees stuff as i recall.

DUDE!! I think we may have a winner. I didn't even think to look around the same month for a KC game with the correct pitcher.

Think it's a match??
