Re: Recent Pickups

Just picked up a vintage 1979 Will McEnaney Cards road jersey for my collection (it might not be a Hernandez but it's a nice jersey nevertheless!)
Photos attached...

TNTtoys I usually don't comment on other collectors pick ups, but in this case, I must say that is one EXCELLENT aquisition regardless of the player. If it's all original it's even better.

Lon, thanks very much! I did think so myself... That's certainly one I'll hold onto for a while. All original, unaltered.

Re: Recent Pickups

I was excited to pick up this lot from my favorite current Cub at last weekend's Cubs Convention...Michael Barrett's catchers gear from last season. The mask is signed, and Barrett's name is embroidered on the chest protector. I've already photo matched the gear to numerous home and road games last season. If anyone can help me locate a game used Wilson Michael Barrett glove, I'd appreciate it!

Re: Recent Pickups

Picked up a 2006 David Ortiz Rawlings game used bat with ball/seam marks, cleat marks, weighted donut impression and pine tar that's still tacky. Looks like a late season bat of Ortiz.

Re: Recent Pickups

I can't believe this! I was looking at some 2006 David Ortiz photos that I saved and think I found a photo match.

The game photo of Ortiz hitting a double is from 9-29-06 vs Orioles.

I made the last two photos larger and brighter.

I found three clear matches on the bat:

The cleat marks on the left barrel area, the tar less area just below the silver ring and the dark pine tar on the lower handle (made darker from the black palm area of his leather batting gloves)

Let me know what you guys think, I'll be posting the pics on the photo matched thread.

Thanks, Bobby

Re: Recent Pickups

Kylehess gave me some great suggestions on photomatching this bat with pictures and game film. I got the bat after the game on Sept 20th as a HR bat and finally the MLB #'d hologram confirmed it. Zim hit his 19th HR/99th RBI with the bat in the 1st inning and then cracked it in the 4th inning on a single to left field.

Hello, did u ever try using peanut butter to help remove the tape or sticky stuff off? Try on a piece of old wood 1st before trying on your bat.
