Autographed Carlos Gonzalez 2016 All-Star Home Run Derby Trophy Bat. The 2016 Major League Baseball All-Star Home Run Derby included many of the league’s home run stars, one being Carlos Gonzalez (CarGo). As CarGo is a B45 Ambassador, Carlos requested that B45 custom make a bat for the 2016 All-Star event that will showcase his country flag of Venezuela. B45 handcrafted a limited quantity of these replica bats, which are the exact same specs and colors as the bat CarGo used during the Home Run Derby. This bat will be packaged in bubble wrap securely within a sturdy mailing tube. If you watched the 2016 MLB Home Run Derby, you most likely noticed Carlos Gonzalez’s special edition bat (green grass picture). This magnificent custom made bat features the Venezuelan flag painted on the handle. This bat trended on social media that night. Below is the story behind this famous bat. On July 5th, CarGo was elected to his third All-Star Game. Everyone at B45 was extremely proud to see Carlos make it to MLB’s annual classic again. “CarGo will participate in the Home Run Derby, and wants a crazy bat, ” said the B45 pro rep close to the star player. The event was only 5 days away, so B45 had to start this “masterpiece” immediately. Many ideas came from both CarGo, and the B45 staff. But not only a little flag engraved somewhere on the barrel. Carlos wanted the bat to become a flag of it’s own! Being used to custom bats with one or two colors at the maximum, the B45 crew faced the challenge to create a bat with four layers of colors: a black barrel, and a handle in yellow, blue, and red. In addition, the blue part must have eight stars on it! The B45 production crew stayed late to finish the paint job. The next morning, the bat was engraved with: Model CG5 CarGo 2016 All-Star Game Home Run Derby, with the Venezuelan flag also engraved right next to it. The bat was packaged, and traveled nearly 3,000 miles from Quebec City, Canada to San Diego U. The site of the 2016 MLB All-Star game.
