I picked up a pretty cool Sammy Sosa "Bruce Wayne" bat. Apparently Sammy ordered a handful of these in '97 and '98. I have also seen pictures of him holding "Clark Kent" or "Kent" bats.
If anyone can shed any light on the history of these bats or how many they have come across over the years, I would be interested in hearing.
The bat shows great use.

[Nnunnari]

I am assuming these are Clark Kent bats?

[Birdbats]

I'd assume that's a Mark Clark bat -- last name only since he was a pitcher.

Couple new jerseys...

Matt Holliday 2010 Home (Hammered with pine tar stains, loose threads, and fading on the logos, photomatched to HR 180)

Adam Wainwright 2014 BP/ST (Likely used all season from use, photomatched to multiple dates)

[Nnunnari]

I'd assume that's a Mark Clark bat -- last name only since he was a pitcher.

Seems strange that he would use a pitcher's bat on multiple occasions during the home run chase but so would only putting Clark on his bats.

Picked up my first non Reds game used item with this purchase. Barry Bonds game used 2000 SAM bat, PSA/DNA GU 10.

Agreed. Clark was a teammate of Sosa's with the Cubs in the late 1990s.

Just picked up this Adam Dunn Marucci bat that was made on 5/1/12 and used the following season (the MLB authentication is only for the signature). I still have a fair amount of research to do but believe it can be photo matched to his first at bat of the 2013 season (April 1) and to the home runs he hit on April 21, 25 and 27 (Career HR's #409, #410 and #411). Dunn liked to use multiple bats simultaneously so it should be interesting to track this bat's usage.
