That is a tough match, I went through Getty, Iconsportsmedia, and AP and there are many style matches, but hard to get a photo match. The key is probably going to be marks on the handle. Is it broken and repaired? It looks like it had a H crack on the handle that was fixed. I am curious what happened to the M9 label. I assume it was taken off during the bat repair and never put back on. There are no photos of McCann without a label.

I bought this bat from a guy that bought it from the braves chairty store at turner field. The bat has not been repaired. The guy that bought it told me that the M9 sticker wasnt on it when he bought it. And naw I dont really wanna sell the Prado bat.

That isn't the bat, there is too much mota stick, the maple logo isn't rubbed away and the picture right next to it is from the same at bat and you can see the M9 decal.

It may just be the picture, but this is what looked like a crack repair to me.

I would really try to focus on marks on the handle above where the hands are to match up. The ball marks aren't clean enough to see in a picture and I think the label probably was taken off after use.

idk, its wierd why it M9 decal wasnt on there. I really would like to have it photomatched. But it the pictures dont show it then, its gonna be hard to photomatch it.

I forgot to mention I have a JT Hall XBat that is missing the XBat Center Brand Label. The bat has a ton of use!
