Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
those are replica bats with the 125 underscored, regardless of who is selling and what they say. trying to make a quick buck.

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
I sent him a message stating that the bat labeling appears to be from a newer bat. He responded
the labels today say louisville slugger in the middle, the earlier models says Hillerich and bradsby in the middle.

I responded about the trademark R after Louisville Slugger and I haven't heard back from him.
In his earlier auctions it also looks like his 1966 and 1969 bats have the R after Louisville Slugger.Leave a comment:

"I hit back to back homeruns with this bat, second time i did this in my career."
According to www.baseball-reference.com, the first time he hit back-to-back HR was 7/13/74 against Steve Rogers. The second time he did it was 7/17/74 against Philadelphia (Lonborg and Watt).

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
Also the 125 looks to be underlined. This auction and his other ones seem shady. Maybe the seller is hard up for cash and is now reducing morale to meet those needs?Leave a comment:

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
I'm curious about this one:
The registered trademark after LOUISVILLE SLUGGER on the barrel, on a pre-1976 bat. Does this look right to anyone?
Not to mention, as others have pointed out, no signs of use whatsoever.Leave a comment:

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
Well.....I guess I stand corrected. Baltimore players did wear the lower numbers at some point?Attached FilesLeave a comment:

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
Was curious if those jerseys on Ebay recently were actual Orioles issued or if they were from his days with the 1988 Erie Orioles. He posted a back photo of the road jersey, which looks more Like Baltimore issue, rather then Erie. The Erie jersey numbers were much lower (see photo). It doesn't appear that Erie got recycled Orioles jerseys, but they look awfully similar?Attached FilesLeave a comment:

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
Ole Bobby has a pretty bad habit of selling his auction items before the auction ends , it sucks to follow and bid on a item for days only to have it disappear......Leave a comment:

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
It's possible. But he describes them as practically brand new. So these bats never made any other contact with a ball? bat rack? dirt? etc.? And he doesn't mention any markings. So he just remembers which bat was which? Or is it more likely that he embellished the description?Leave a comment:

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
Tom,
Why can't he stop using his first homerun bats. I'm sure alot of players have stop using their bat after hitting number 1.Leave a comment:

Re: Former player listing cool items on eBay
Thought it was neat too. But did you notice that a couple of his bats (that appear to have no use) say stuff like "1st hit as a Cincinnati Red, opening day 1969, 1st pitch homerun off now HOF'er Don Drysdale...Bat is practically brand new doesnt show any marks on it, retired it after the homerun as a cincinnati red."
He also "retired" his 1970 world series bat and his 1st HR bat. Seems a little unlikely to me.
Tom
