Re: I Need Your Help - 1996 Alex Rodriguez Rawlings Game Used Bat (Final Results)

I think photo matching is great. But you have to be realistic when trying to compare finding a photo matched from today, than from earlier years.

The farther you go back, the more difficult it is to find vidoes and pictures. Technology today is much more advance, and we have many more tools.

Agreed, a photo match would be great but my question was that w/o a photo of Arod using this model bat in any game action how can it be authenticated as 100% game used. His initial statement was that it was used to hit a specific home run which was proven wrong, then over 10 years later he signs it as game used. If there is doubt by the player, how can the authenticator be sure it wasn't just a bp bat, etc... Like I said nice bat- just questioning the authentication/grading system
