Me, I was bat boy for Hokies every time they came to Lexington.... twice a year for many years. Coach Red Laird always face me a cracked bat.... my fav I kept for many years was Bob Porterfield. Yes, he was a pitcher for Senators. I never saw another bat w pitcher's names/autograph. Eventually I used it to stake tomato plants.
