Hello Forum Members,
Does anyone know or can someone post McGwire's bat records for 1997...the A's part of 1997? Thanks.

Hi, do you own a 1997 mcgwire game used bat?

[whatupyos]

No, I don't own one but saw one but it only had two numbers in the batch number instead of three and I was suspect because they usually have three numbers.

Was this bat you saw for sale? Did you find it on the internet?

[whatupyos]

Yeah, it was on EBay and ended yesterday, didnt bid on it though. The thing that threw me off was that it had only 2 numbers for the batch number and usually, from my understanding, they have 3...example 174 97 for batch number and year...the year was fine but batch number only had 2 numbers.

To my eye, it looks like the "1" in the batch number didn't strike dead on when the bat was manufactured. It looks like there is a very light "1" in front of the 74.
I've noticed the same sort of problem with a couple of the Rawlings bats in my own collection.

Hi again, I no you said the auction ended I was wondering if you still had the ebay address so that I can look at it. Thanks, Matt
