Re: April 2015 Pickups

Picked up a few bats from Lance Berkman's final MLB season. The Ash Bat is photomatched and I have a likely match on the older-style maple bat.

Looking to keep adding Berkman items, especially Cardinals or Yankees items, m9 bats (Astros, Yankees, or Cardinals), or fielding gloves.

Re: April 2015 Pickups

Headed to the Louisville Slugger factory over spring break and anyone who has been there knows they have a massive pile of "error" bats in the gift shop. I thought all of them were just retail type bats, but at the bottom sticking out was one with a name plate. After nearly knocking all the bats over I pulled out a Quentin Berry bat intended for the 2012 World Series. Not anything special, but very unique being tied to the world series.

I am no expert but I assume this was indeed intended for him(everything looks right)...until the burning machine had a seizure that is.

Re: April 2015 Pickups

Alex Gordon rookie year game used/worn cap. I think there is a photo-match in the grime on the bill, but I need to spend some more time on it...

Jim Thome, Eddie Murray, Dave Winfield, and Lenny Dykstra game used bats. Dykstra was from the Tidewater Tides in '85.

I bet tigerdale would be interested in owning this...

Picked up game used fielding gates they reused padding and netting but have all the frames from first and third. Here is gates in background the piece shown is stopper piece with camera leaning up against it.
Not exactly sure where to put these very large items but couldn't see them being scrap.

I'm no expert on photo-matching, but that last photo is looking pretty good for it.

Re: April 2015 Pickups

I picked up a couple of bats at the A's in game auctions over the weekend.

Chilli Davis, I guess you would call a coaches bat team issued, AXIS bat
Vernon Wells Maiucci bat, MLB Auth as team issued as it was collected at the end of last year

Re: April 2015 Pickups

2014 Giancarlo Stanton game used cleats.
There's an excellent chance these were worn during a 2 home run game against the Dodgers on May 4, but I need to research it more now that I have them in hand.

Re: April 2015 Pickups

These 3 bats were used by the player and sent to Xbat to be used to make their own Xbat model. Hence the information on the tape and the writing on the Pudge barrel. Pretty cool bats.

2004 Jeff Bagwell
2003 Pudge Rodriguez (says "34-31 1/2 NO cup, black)
