While I was in my attic today, I came across this bat that I had forgot I even had. I bought it 15-20 years ago at a local card show just because it was game used and it was cheap. And I thought having a game used item was pretty dam cool.

The name on the bat is Dann Bilardello but the number on the knob is not his. I did some research today and from what I can tell, it is from the 1986-1989 branding period. During that time, Dann had 3 different teammates with the number 14. They were Tom Prince (1990), Bill Moore (1989) and Ken Oberkfell (1986). I am posting pictures so you all can see how the bat was prepped with a bit of tape and pine tar. This is exactly how I bought it in the early 90's. I know it is a long shot, but I had to at least ask.

Any help or feedback would be appreciated.
