I have a game used Tim Wakefield M9 bat from the 2005 season. Can anyone help me locate pictures of Wakefield at bat either during BP or a game?

Wakefield had 8 at bats during the 2005 season!

Thanks, Bobby

I can't help, but I can say that I tried finding a picture of Pedro Martinez batting as an Expo for a very long time and totally struck out. I wish you luck. Cool bat, too.

pictureman,

Great photo! The photo is from 2003, but it's a big help, I'm trying to style match the bat and you can see in that photo that the lower handle is shaped exactly like the bat I have from 2005. The grain looks to be ash as LVS did not start producing maple bats until late 2003.

Thanks again, Bobby

Here's a photo of the knob on the Tim Wakefield bat, I also found a photo of a signed Tim Wakefield cap, notice that the 49 is written the same as the knob, especially the number 9.

Looks as if Wakefield penned the knob of this bat himself.
