Changed the title back to the most recent thread.

Let's compare the barrel to Bo's 4th inning ASG AB. Unfortunate President Reagan was in the booth with Vince Scully and took air time from Bo before his 1st inning AB. As Pwkw13 points out it'll be hard to tell if this is the same bat he used for both ABs


What do you guys think?

I saw another photo of him in the dugout holding 2 bats. One was a Cooper and the other unknown as it didn't show the barrels. I could just see the Cooper colored ring.

This pine tar application differs between the Bo ASG game bat and the one which was in the KC royals museum (Justin's bat)

I'm no expert but I am not sure you can say it's not with the scale of the 2 different pictures. Too bad there isn't some grain detail that could be seen on the barrel.

Do these grains match up?

I think it's apparent in this comparison that the pine tar does not match up.

I sent these photos to John Taube for his review to get his opinion too.

Justin,

John Taube would need the bat sent to him and he will get photos enlarged to do an direct comparison in order for him to make a determination on this bat. All costs of shipping and photos would be your responsibility.

I don't know if they match. I can't see it well enough. I just don't how by looking at the different scales you can say definitively that it is or isn't the bat.

I agree. John indicated with bat in hand and blow up of photos he would be able to make a better judgement call.
