Best Baseball Bats for Different Types of Players
Length
The length of the bat you use will impact your swing speed and plate coverage, so it is important to make sure that you choose the right length of bat for you. A simple way to check bat length is to stand the bat up next to your leg while you are standing up. Stand with your arms relaxed at your sides. The knob of the bat should reach the same height as the center of your palm.
Weight
Different bats are weighted differently, and it is essential to choose a bat that is the appropriate weight for you. To check if the weight is right for you, hold the handle of the bat and extend your arm to the side, holding the bat extended out from your arm. You should be able to hold the bat for about 30-45 seconds before it becomes too heavy. If you cannot hold it this long, the bat is probably too heavy for you. If you can hold it up for longer, you likely need a heavier bat.
League Requirements
It is important to check your league requirements for baseball bats. Different bats are required depending on the league, often based on the age of players. Generally speaking, baseball players between the ages of 14 and 18 will be required to use a bat that meets BBCOR standards. Little League players age 7 to 13 will need to use a USA stamped bat. BC Minor League players age 7 to 13 can use a USSSA or USA stamped bat. BC Minor Players in 9U and below cannot use a bat greater than 2 ⅝” diameter barrel. Players age 6 and under will need a tee ball bat. Check with your league or call our store to find out more about the level of play.
