After 20 years, i finally landed my Dream Bat - MCGWIRE HR BAT !!!!!

[panthrotc]

Christmas came early. Worked out a deal to bring home the McGwire Bat of my dreams today!!! Did your grandpa want a bat that babe ruth hit a HR with? Did your dad want a bat that Mickey Mantle hit a bomb with?? Well growing up as a little kid and even now into my adult life i have always wanted a McGwire HR bat. They exist, he was known to give them away to teamates,coaches and friends, but they never pop up for sale. Today i obtained a bat that was given to one of his teamates during his final season in 2001. His 2001 bats are already IMPOSSIBLE to find nonetheless a HR bat is just flat out rediculously impossible to obtain. I present to you, the bat of my dreams.....
Career HR # 576 , hit in Cinncinatti on August 21,2001

cash and trade.

i don't have any pictures of him hitting the HR. i can't find one on getty. The seller has MLB player connect. The player is still in the pros and was a teammate of Mac's in 01. he got the bat direct from him.

If anyone knows any other picture archive site PLEASE LET ME KNOW

This is probably the nicest Mac bat I have seen in an auction. Congrats! I saw this come up for sale and was very curious as to what it would sell for. I hope you can find a photo of that HR, I actually remember seeing that game I believe. It was hit by a construction area in left center if my memory is correct.

I found a photo of him batting in 2001 and I think it is at cincinnati. It may be the hr swing but not positive. Could someone give me some advice on posting photos on here?!
