Carl Crawford Game Bat Help

[cort10]

Hello

I would like some help on this game used Carl Crawford bat.

All of the game bats from Crawford I have seen have been louisville slugger but the seller of this one claims its from his old Devil Ray days.

It has a COA from ASI.

Can anyone confirm that its legit?

Crawford used x-bats during his time with the Rays, not just LVS, so I'd assume there is a good chance he probably tried Carolina Clubs also. It has the tapered knob style he uses...

Just an FYI: I own a number of his bats and CC's use pattern tends to be ball/seam marks on all sides of the barrel. Usually some mota/tar on the handle or centerbrand and a batting weight impression if he used the bat for awhile...

Also, if you look thru Getty, there are like 2,500 images of him on there over the years. You might come across one using a Carolina bat...

You can take my word for it if you would like, I have personally seen Crawford use these bats while with the Durham Bulls this would be a bat early from his career. On a side note i actually used to own a Carolina Club identical to this however it was autographed.....
