Seems like someone got a sensational story and someone will make money out of it selling the bat. If it works we'll see more of the same.

Or maybe Mantle corked a bat and someone discovered it. That would be news in my book. If someone is no longer alive then you can't report news about them? I've got no dog in the fight, and could care less if he did or didn't.
