I used to work with the Marucci Bat Company. I'll see if I can get some interesting info on nicknames put on bats for Major Leaguers. Got to help make a big batch of bats for Beltran last year, which was cool.

Re: Show Us Your Nickname Bats!!

I would however like to add a non-Mets bat to my collection because I always thought it was hilarious -- a Todd Helton bat with the label "Hillbilly"... John Taube has one for sale currently, but there are quite a few items higher on my wish list than this one...

Re: Show Us Your Nickname Bats!!

Awhile back on eBay (too long ago for the auction to be viewed) I saw a game used Robinson Cano Rawlings bat that had "ROCA" on it (for RObinson CAno, I'm guessing). I don't know if it was brought up here or not, but has anyone seen a Cano nickname bat with ROCA?

Kind Regards,

Ron.

Re: Show Us Your Nickname Bats!!

As a Mets collector but not a very big bat collector, I have managed to add 2 to my collection over the past couple of years --

a Todd Hundley bat that contains both his name and the "HOT ROD" nickname and an Edgardo Alfonzo bat with "FONZIE" on it. I have also seen Alfonzo bats labeled "FONZY" before too.

Not new additions to the list we have running here however.

Jeff,

These are fantastic. My favorite is Jose Oquendo (Secret Weapon). I wouldn't have guessed this one!

Re: Show Us Your Nickname Bats!!

Here are a few past and present Cardinals nickname bats. They include Jose Oquendo (Secret Weapon), Rheal Cormier (Frenchie), Delino DeShields (BOP), Craig Paquette (Pokey), Frank DiPino (Pizza Pino), Yadier Molina (R.I.P. Mami, a tribute to his deceased grandma), Royce Clayton (Ice), Jason Isringhausen (Izzy), Mike Timlin (Dawg) and Ken Dayley (Miss Dayley, ordered as a joke by equipment manager Buddy Bates).

Always looking for more Cardinals nickname bats. Most wanted bats include: "Boom Boom" on a Young bat (Ray Lankford), "Tank" (Thomas Howard) and "Pulse" (Bill Pulsipher).

Re: Show Us Your Nickname Bats!!

Hi,

I ran across these nickname bats while cleaning up the past few days that I wanted to share:

1. D-Bat with the name "C-Low" on the bat and Florida Marlins team name that belonged to Mike Colangelo.

2. Carolina Clubs bat with the name "Fonzy" that belonged to Edgardo Alfonzo. I have also seen Rawlings bats of Alfonzo with this same nickname.

Sorry, again no photos are available.
