Drop−3
What this means

Drop is length minus weight: a 30 in, 20 oz bat is a -10. A bigger drop number means a lighter bat for its length. Younger players use -10 to -13; USSSA 13U is usually capped at -5; high school and college are -3.

Tip: Check the drop your league allows before you look at anything else.

Barrel2 5/8
Lengths29, 30, 31, 32, 32.5, 33, 33.5, 34 in
KnobTapered
What this means

A cone-shaped transition from handle to knob, somewhere between standard and flared.

BalanceBalanced
What this means

Weight is spread evenly, so the bat feels lighter than its number. A player who uses the knob or handle to deliver the barrel often needs the weight balanced or down toward the hands. Balance is not barrel size: some big-barrel bats are balanced.

Tip: Which one is right depends on your player and how consistently they deliver the barrel.

Sizes29/26; 30/27; 31/28; 32/29; 33/30; 34/31; 32.5/29.5; 33.5/30.5
CertificationBBCOR (in product name)
What this means

Required for high school and college: drop -3, barrel up to 2-5/8 in. From the 2028 season high school will also allow USA -4, -5 and -6 bats; 2026 and 2027 stay BBCOR only.

The maker says
  • EVX Alloy Tech Barrel.
  • Tuned Mass Damper (TMD): Component within the handle absorbs vibration for an unbelievable feel with every swing – no matter where players make contact.
  • XPND Performance End Cap: Innovative design expands the barrel’s sweet spot, improving performance and feel further out toward the end of the barrel.
  • Pro Design Knob Taper: Engineered to improve comfort, control and feel, this tapered construction at the base of the handle offers enhanced leverage through the swing.
