This is not a photo of Joe Pepitone using but posing with a 58-61 white letter Adirondack Cepeda Type model bat.

I hear that Hunter Pence was using one of Miggy Tejada's pink bats today for the Astros. He should do that kind of thing more often; he got three hits today with Miggy's bat.

Re: Players using others players bats or other equipment

I've had this post in my to-do list for a while now...

Mike Cameron tied the all-time record with 4 HRs in a game. For that game, he was using an Edgar Martinez model Rawlings Big Stick. An article I read had Mike saying that Edgar and the superstars get the best cuts of wood. Attatched is a picture of the bat on display in Cooperstown. I have another picture somewhere that was taken in a pre-digital camera era... It is an Edgar model, but has 44 on the knob.

Re: Players using others players bats or other equipment

Just picked up a Dave Winfield cooper DW20 gamer from his last year with the Indians, and to my delight there was a 24(Manny Ramierez) on the knob. Manny got one of Winfields clubs and used it a couple of times and didnt care for it so he gave it up and it has now landed in my collection. A 500 HR hitter using a 3000 hitters bat, thought that was cool. I'll try to post a pic later, but has anyone got a shot of Manny in 95 with a two-toned cooper? Jeff

Who was #44 on that bat for this year? I don't know what year the Getty Image file was from, so I can't look up whose bat it was.

Re: Players using others players bats or other equipment

I think Kosuke was using everyone's bats last year trying to get hot again. I know during one Cubs broadcast they were talking about how he got some bats from Mike Fontenot.

Bobby,

Where did you find those Fukudome photos? Would be interested in finding the site they came from, more specifically to find out the date they were taken.

Thanks!
