Beltran GM2 NLDS 2-HR game bat

Here is my best pickup from this past weekend at the Cardianls WWU. I had some screen shots with me when I went but no autograph ticket. Had to scramble to get one! He was very nice, and gave me a great signature and inscription. He even said, "Make sure you let that dry." after he signed it. Took his time with the paint pen to make sure it looked good. The bat is authenticated to broken in the 1st inning of game 4. I think he used it in game 1 and 3 also. The first HR was easy to match with the marks, but there was no good shot of the second HR. I matched the large glob of tar on the handle right above his thumb. The tape on the handle was added by the team probably because the bat splintered a bit.
