Re: Chandler Bats Date Code
December 2011 was the manufacture date of the bat. Don't thank me, thank Chandler Bats for the deciphering of the code and the quick response.

Thanks Andrew! I was going to shoot off an email in the morning, but figured I'd see if anyone here knew how to read it first. I can't believe they got back to you so quick, and after hours! Thanks again
Thanks,

Re: Chandler Bats Date Code
I will tell you how great Chandler Bats has been. I run baseball camps for kids during the summers and we always look to add corporate sponsors.
When I called Chandler bats on Friday about sponsorships they wanted to contribute a dozen wood bats for our camp this week and will be driving down the bats from Philadelphia to Washington DC tomorrow morning so we have them in time to get autographed from some of the Washington Nationals players attending our camps on Tuesday and Wednesday.
I'm blown away by that type of philanthropy. When I told the kids that David Chandler the founder of Chandler Bats was coming to camp tomorrow and that he made Bryce Harper's HR Derby bats the kids cheered!

Re: Chandler Bats Date Code
I took a Chandler bat that Diamondbacks prospect Phildrick Llewellyn used in ST out to an Arizona League game last night, for him to sign, and he was incredibly jazzed to see it again - told me that it was the sample he'd been sent, that he'd been really sad when he'd cracked it in a game, and that his agency was not doing business with Chandler any longer, so he didn't expect to be getting any more. Even though this bat had a long handle crack, Phil said that these bats are so strong that he could probablly tape it up and keep using it if he had to. I'll be interested in seeing the dating info, too, as this bat seems to have two complete dates on it, both in August 2012, about two weeks apart.

Re: Chandler Bats Date Code
Oscar Taveras' bat is from his opening season order from this year. Should be model OT19 (proprietary E100 model designed over the winter when he played in the DR). Fuller head with a 243 handle, tightened transition). NY log.
Wong's should be the KW14 custom cut 353 head on a modified 331 handle, thinned. Opening season order as well. PA log.
