Significant Buster Posey Bat - need help with photomatch

[Josephcb09]

Hello all,

This is my first post on the forum but I have read many informative posts on here over the years.

I was wondering if I could get some help with a photomatch on my game used Buster Posey Bat. This bat was purchased directly from the Giants and I believe it was Buster's first big league RBI. The MLB authentication shows it as from the first inning of the May 29, 2010 game.

I can get some more detailed pictures if needed but this is what I have already taken:









I am willing to pay for the photomatch assistance.

Thanks in advance,
Joe

Nice looking bat.
Wish I could find a game used milestone bat of Cano.
I'm sure someone on here will be able to help with the match, good luck and welcome to the board.

I can see the slight nick under the 'San Fransisco Giants' and the grain looks to match. Is the bat uncracked?

Hey guys,

Thanks for the help so far. I can see the two marks under the
"San Francisco" in the picture as well. It looks like this is definately the bat used to hit his first RBI but I would like to get some clear larger photos (or maybe a video) of the hit to keep with the bat.

The bat does have a hairline crack down the handle. I have seen some quick video of the hit and it wasn't really a screamer, so he probably broke his bat with the hit.

I will try and get some better pictures of the front and back of the bat to help identify.

I have seen some guys use MLB.tv to match using actual game footage. Is this something that can be done for a game from 2010?

Thanks again guys,
Joe
