Re: Jeter Plays For Mets?????

Also, can you post better when you get it.

yes I will. I also had asked the seller and the bat is 34 inches and about 31 .5 oz (a guess). It has the TPX and MLB logos on the back side too.

Guys

I was the winning bidder. Given the rivalry between the Mets and Yankees and Jeter killing the Mets all the time I thought it would make a great conversation piece.

"Bat came directly from the louisvill slugger factory were my best friend, who is a professional baseball player went and they let him buy pro wood bats that were miss labeled or guys change teams that are leftovers."

Sounds reasonable. When Brian returns to the board, I'm sure he can either confirm or dispute whether such a thing is possible.

Here's the response i got from the seller when i asked about the origin of the bat.

Re: Jeter Plays For Mets?????

Now if I could get a bat that said Jeter Red sox's i would definitely pay a pretty penny for that! LOL. If it was or wasn't a mistake i still think it a pretty cool peace of memorabilia.

Re: Jeter Plays For Mets?????

I believe it's a mistake. HB are professionals and would not joke with such a high profile player. If you think about the teams involved both are "NEW YORK" and it would be easy to have punched in the wrong NY team. Now had it been stamped Derek Jeter Boston Red Sox that would have been a more obvious mistake.

Re: Jeter Plays For Mets?????

I would think something like this would not happen to often. Don't they make these bat in small batches, also you would think someone would notice this seeing as these bat are being sent to a high profile player. Maybe you are right, this bat was not a mistake.

Re: Jeter Plays For Mets?????

Good points and questions Godwulf. Wonder if the guys at HB we clowning around with this one Not sure though if they would like to piss off Derek Jeter one of their most loyal customers.

I'd like to also know what HB does with these mis-stamped bats.

Do they go into the BPAS batch and a minor leaguer got hold of it?

Perhaps BMH could comment on this bat.
