Rawlings bats

[Yankwood]

Do we know exactly what years Rawlings bats used the team's name under the players name and is it always consistent?

from what i can tell (and according to Jeff Scott) it started in 1991.

there is more info on this page identifying the LS characteristics for certain model years.

Thanks for the reply, but I was referring to Rawlings bats.

1990 was the first year team names were stamped under players names on Rawlings bats. Prior to 1990 "Professional Model" was stamped under the players name. 1990 was also the year Rawlings changed the center labeling too.

I believe 2003 (some one correct me if i'm wrong) they started stamping them -PRO-
