Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I didn't buy this bat off of Amazon, but rather at a local Sports Basement here in SF. I was super-psyched about the great feel of the tapered handle, the weighting that gave a nice whip-action in my swing, and the solid feel of the barrel.
That was all until I got up and swung at the first pitch I saw (sub 80mph fastball in on the hands) and I heard that familiar dreaded crack...
That's right...first pitch, first at-bat.
Wish it weren't so because now I'll have to mail it back to Rawlings and have them honor their 90 day guarantee (perhaps the one reason it's getting 2 stars).
I can see this being a good bat, and perhaps I just had some unlucky contact that exploited its prime weakspot...but still, first pitch? They need to revisit their design specs here.
