- 2010 Worth Baseball Bat Reviews
[Recreation-and-Sports:Baseball] Last year I said that Rawlings is the Rodney Dangerfield of baseball bats and their brother brand, Worth, is the Joe Piscopo of baseball bats. You know he's still doing comedy shows somewhere on earth but you just don't care. For the 2010 model year nothing has changed. Nobody seems to care about Worth bats and it's difficult to even find much information on their bats. Amazingly this is the case on their own web site where they don't tell you which baseball bats are for the 2010 model year! They only talk about their new softball bats.
- 2010 Louisville Baseball Bat Reviews

[Recreation-and-Sports:Baseball] The big news for 2010 is that COMbat finally is offering their most popular bats, the B1 and B2, in Adult and Senior League models. It's hard to believe it took them so long to do this but at least the light bulb finally went on. Also in 2010, they'll finally get to push the B2 which had a delayed introduction last year because it initially did not meet regulations.

I've sorted my recommendations based on the composition and price of the bat to simplify the process. I believe this makes it easier to pinpoint the bat that's right for you.
- Moment of Inertia (MOI) And Swing Weight
[Recreation-and-Sports:Baseball] Moment of Inertia (MOI) governs how a bat feels and is a more meaningful measure of how well it will swing for you than the actual weight of the bat. Bat speed, not bat size nor weight, is the main factor in driving a ball.
- Mattingly Baseball Bat Reviews
[Recreation-and-Sports:Baseball] Mattingly bats main selling point is the V-Grip handle. The handle, somewhat shaped like a V, is designed to help you grip the handle correctly. Meaning your "door knocking knuckles" are aligned when grasping the handle. In my opinion, it's the equivalent of the youth baseball gloves that have a notch to help kids close the glove better.

[Recreation-and-Sports:Baseball] Easton has been the leader in composite bats for the last several years and will undoubtedly continue this trend with the IMX, their new 100% composite bats for 2009.

[Recreation-and-Sports:Baseball] The Louisville Exogrid has been a popular baseball bat for the last three years. When introduced, it had a unique design that separated it from the pack.
