    Re: Alex Rodriguez Home Run Bat Error?

    Tony ( or anyone else) do you have a photo match of this bat. If so please contact me at metsbats86@aol.com

    I spoke to John Taube just now who believes there was a photo match and if we can get it to him he can pursue correcting this bat and related documentation.

    Thanks

    Tony,

    Arod's 639th home run was hit in Atlanta on 6/12. That homerun tied Arod with Lou Gehrig with 23 grand slams.

    Here are a few pics of Arod's at bat in the 1st (2 pics) and 3rd innings. First pic is from the 1st inning. Other two pics are from the 3rd inning, in which he hit HR #638. Without the bat in my hand to look better, it's difficult to tell my these pics.

    I took photos of the auction bat and lined it up with Tony's screen shots from each of Arod's at bats.

    This does not look like the same bat. What do you all think?

    Could this have been a mlb hologram mess up?? Because on the hologram they did put "Used to hit HR".

    The first pic was from the 1st inning, so I wouldn't count that bat. The 2nd and 3rd pics were from the 3rd innning.

    While watching each movement of the bat, I could consistenlty see this white spot on the bat as he swung the bat around.

    Key for me would be to see if this bat has the same white spot.
