I waited a while to get accepted to the site, so hopefully some of you don't mind me reposting a thread from another forum. More opinions the better.

Hi, I picked up a GU Stanton Marrucci Bat from a Marlins tent sale last week (9/19/12).
The MLB Authentication code comes back to September 4th, 2012 (a game I went to by the way) as a 6th inning single off of Shawn Marcum.
The bat is broken, and the single was a broken bat bloop single to CF.
He used the same bat in the second inning from what I belive I photomatched (Strikeout) and....
a Fourth Inning HR to CF. (I believe I photomatched the knob)
I also have a self photo I took, of the 6th inning at bat. In addition, I have a photo of the swing where it broke too.
Here's what I have, let me know what you guys think. I wish I could buy that Getty Image I posted, which is of the HR swing.
On another note, I've since removed the tape, and it did not leave any residue or remove the pine tar. I found the bat is cracked, but it is in one piece.
Thanks and enjoy the pix!
EDIT: I was able to find a high resolution getty image of his 4th inning HR, i've included that.
My Album on photobucket, for higher resolution pix.
