Re: Yasiel Puig 2013 Old Hickory Game Used Bat

What is in the big blue bag on the counter? Catchers gear?

I saw that on the sheet as luggage but you never know with some of this stuff as it could be the catcher's travel bag.

We had the coolest items that the Orioles found in storage and it took us the longest time to research and what we discovered was they were 1940's St. Louis Browns travel lockers that then became travel lockers for the Orioles.

Hard to believe items like that survived in storage as many times they are thrown away as junk.

We just added new cabinetry to display a sampling of the game used.

We will have 100's of pieces from past seasons too that we will be working on doing an inventory of.

Scott, congrats on the acquisition! Have you attempted to do any photomatching on the bat?

Ken is putting some good matches together. Here are some wood grain matches and some ball mark matches.

Scott's bat came through Art of the Game who now controls game used memorabilia at Dodger Stadium.

Where is this on the market? Was Wonderboy (I assume you mean the 1st HR/grand slam bat) publicly for sale and how much did that go for?

Nice pickup! I'm impressed with your determination and ability to track down the items you are looking for and the players you like. I know it must take a lot of effort.

Off topic, two different friends saw Trout within one week earlier this month in the OC. First at Chipotle and then at Sharky's (a Tex-Mex restaurant). Let's hope his diet improves!

Thanks brother. I guess its the thrill of the hunt. Catching the next big star.

Trout still has a few years of the young man metabolism then those days of eating like a pig had better stop...see Andrew Jones ;-)

Nice bat, nice photo. Where did you run into Puig?

What's up Andrew?? Any news on that Puig Jersey or bat yet?

Pittsburgh, June 14-16. Puig seems like a great kid.

Order confirmed by Old Hickory Rep: This is a bat that was ordered for Yasiel by his agent/financial advisor. It is bat #9 of an order of 12 (6-MY1 and 6-YP66). It is 34”/32 oz, black barrel/natural handle, cupped and maple. It was ordered on 5/20 and was sent to him while he was still in AA, just before he was called up to LA. Tremendous use!
