The base can probably be repaired. I would scour eBay for a similar base of that exact size (on a non-baseball trophy of lesser value). There will be many to choose from.
Was the Bat in his hands when you sent it, or did it break off as well? The Batter's arms and body are blocking that space in the lone "before" photo. If the bat broke off, and if you still have it, that will be a tougher repair which will likely require a professional restorer.
If you repair it and want to sell, you'll need to disclose the restoration. So as stated above, perhaps it's now permanently slated for your personal collection. I hope the PO comes through for you, but wouldn't hold my breath.
