Manny Photomatch??Need Help Please...

[jon_8_us]

While searching for a style match for this Manny Sam bat i posted on another thread i may have run across a photomatch.The knob on this bat has a gold cross on it.I have seen one instance where Manny has done this before in 06 but it was silver and it doesn't match this bat.This bat was shipped in early 06 but i believe it to be an 07 based on these pictures.Let me know what you guys think...

Here's the game photo's from the first week of 07

I was right.Bat has 2/14/06 as the production date but MLB finally entered the hologram in it's database and it was broken April 24th 2007 against the Blue Jays.I believe this was the Sam Bat Manny used in the month of April 07 until it broke.Any help finding additional pictures is much appreciated!

I'm bordering annoying now with all these posts.But i think i have absolutely matched this bat to the at bat when Manny hit the 1st of 4 Hr's in a row against the Yankees when Matsuzaka debuted against the Yanks(a game i was at!) on April 22nd 07 two days before MLB grabbed the bat out of the Boston clubhouse.In the pictures provided i can match the gold cross and the grass on the backside of the bat.

Kylehess,Bobby,anyone with the ability PLEASE help me with the photo's.I have provided links to GIGANTIC versions of these photo's.

Thanks for the big picture!Just waiting on Kylehess with all his red circles and photomatching expertise to confirm all this.Not only is this a HR bat but it's THE HR bat that started back to back to back to back HR's against the Yanks.My best photomatch yet!!!
