Re: Josh Hamilton used bat MLB hologram question?

I mean the angle of the bat in te video may not let you be able to see the blue marks and the bat has a small crack in it not big enough to be able to hear in a video or see

Re: Josh Hamilton used bat MLB hologram question?

It could just be the angle. Also it is not cracked but a little bit not even enough to hear i think. It didn't need taping or anything. It's about a centimeter deep and 1 inch long. So very small

When you say it could be the angle, what are you meaning?

So let me get this straight...the bat bat isn't cracked but has a crack a centimeter deep and an inch long. Now im even more confused with this bat...lol.

Re: Josh Hamilton used bat MLB hologram question?

ya. im just thinking why would they put used during all star game if it wasnt?

Well it could have been used in the game we will see what comes up but If its marked wrong it wouldn't be the first time or last time a mistake has been made.

It may have been used during bp or possibly the day before...

The bat he used in bp prior to the game was the bat he used his first AB in the game it looks like....It very well could have been used another time...but my question is why can't we see the blue marks or more importantly how was it cracked if it was the bat used later in the game? V

Here is the Bp bat, same grain as the one used his first AB....

Re: Josh Hamilton used bat MLB hologram question?

From what i see it looks like the 6th inning single bat.

There is a chance I don't see anything conclusive one or the other right now to say for sure, if your bat was used in the game it looks like it is going to have to be because it is 100% not the one used his first at bat. The problem I see is...he only had one swing in the 6th so maybe he connected with the label of the baseball and caused the ink transfer on that one swing....but where did the other one come from then. The bat he was using didn't have any blue marks on it from what I could see from the video....and then when was the bat cracked? Because it didn't sound or appear to be cracked his last AB, it was a solid single... If the bat was collected that day it couldn't have been used in a game after the AS game or bp or anything so I'm not sure what to think.

Re: Josh Hamilton used bat MLB hologram question?

STLHAMMER, did you get my photo of the back of the bat? Were you able to match it?

I got it thanks, I couldn't match it... different grain again it looks like. Tje photo didn't say which at bat it was from so i'm not sure if it was the first at bat or not....lets hope so.

6th

Re: Josh Hamilton used bat MLB hologram question?

Ok, I shrunk and flipped the original image to almost the same size as the at bat pic, tell me what you guys think.

good job, it was not used in his first at bat...I think my post was deleted but I already pointed out the grain was different. if you could do that for the photo I posted for the 6th inning and last AB that could be really helpful! Keep up the good work!
