Mattingly V-Grip V-Force Youth Baseball Bat

Approved for all youth baseball associations, the V-Grip V-Force is made of Mattingly's MB75 alloy, which is engineered to enhance your hitting performance without breaking the bank. The bat's patented V-Grip technology, meanwhile, promotes proper hand alignment each time you step up to the plate, helping boost your bat speed on high hard ones. Finally, the bat is designed to maximize the energy return to the ball, so you'll really rip it when you let 'er rip.

Louisville Slugger SL91T TPX Senior League

Designed for senior league players, the Louisville Slugger SL91T Triton baseball bat brings new meaning to the word "performance." From the earliest days of the game, Louisville Slugger has employed the most powerful technology in the bat business. Back in the days of Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth, that meant putting the most skilled craftsmen at the lathe, where they handcrafted bats to the most demanding specifications of the world's most demanding players. Today, it means applying the latest aerospace technology to bat making, delivering high-tech aluminum, hybrid, and composite bats for youth, high school, college, and senior leagues.

The Triton composite bat features a unique three-piece design, with a separately built handle, barrel, and Bubble Transition (BT) Zone. The BT Zone--which is located between the handle and barrel--functions as the bonding piece, optimizing the relationship between the other two pieces and creating a stiffer and stronger bat. The 2-3/4-inch barrel, meanwhile, boasts an exclusive computer-designed pattern with precisely positioned layers of graphite, resulting in an extra-long length and a huge sweet spot. Other features include a 7/8-inch standard handle with a synthetic grip, a Louisville Slugger end cap, and a -10 oz. weight ratio without the grip. Available in lengths ranging from 27 to 32 inches (with weights from 17 to 22 ounces), the SL91T carries an industry-best one-year warranty.

Today, it means applying the latest aerospace technology to bat making, delivering high-tech aluminum, hybrid, and composite bats for youth, high school, college, and senior leagues.

The Hybrid composite bat features Louisville Slugger's exclusive H2 design, which bonds an ST+20 barrel to a 3X composite handle, helping optimize the bat's overall performance.
