Bbcor vs. Besr Bat

*There have been many deaths due to the use of composite bats. New composite technology has provided the game with better performing equipment, but as also raised concerns. Composite bats create faster ball speeds off barrels and less reaction time when fielding. Another negative for composite bats is that they can be altered or shaved, which cause faster ball speeds off the barrels then allowed for association limits. Associations have considered eliminating composite bats from the game, which would greatly affect Easton, since there are known for their high-quality composite bats.

These aluminum bats, however, are not the standard bats used in college, rather, they are composite bats. The composite bats were used in college, high school and little league baseball until 2010 but banned following the 2010 season when BBCOR bats were introduced. These composite bats make the balls travel farther and the use of them in the MINK League Home-Run Derby brings the promise of large home runs and plenty of

The skill level needed to successfully hit off the different materials remains another argument between metal versus wood bats. Metal bats have been proven to require less skill to hit with because of their weight difference and the size of their "sweet spots" compared to wooden bats. With most metal bats being made of aluminum, they weigh in much lighter than bats made of solid wood. It is much easier for players to swing the aluminum bats due to that fact ("Baseball: Wooden Bats Vs. Metal Bats"). The lighter weight allows players to swing faster, which helps put more force on the ball, resulting in the ball flying farther and much faster. In a test comparing wood bats to multiple types of metal bats, balls batted off wood bats obtained an average speed of 98.6 mph, while balls hit with the different types of metal bats obtained speeds between 100.3 mph and 106.5 mph (Russell). These results show that the lighter weight of the metal bats, helps drive the ball faster and farther and is not necessarily

Are you looking for a new baseball bat? If so you are in luck. Today I will compare 2 of the best BBCOR baseball bats you can buy. BBCOR means drop 3 which is heavier than most bats. The 2 bats are the USSSA Easton Ghost X and the USSSA Easton Beast X Hybrid.

While J.F. Hillerich’s company was growing, Bud worked for him. One afternoon, Bud, who was seventeen, snuck away from work to see his favorite baseball player play on the Louisville Eclipse (“History”). The Louisville Eclipse was a baseball team in the late 1880’s in a two year old American Association. The player was the team’s star Pete Browning. Browning known as “The Old Gladiator” was in a hitting slump (Oldham). A hitting slump is when a baseball player can’t seem to get on base with a hit many times. Baseball players at that time used either a flat bat like a cricket stick or a round bat, but the bat was oddly shaped or weighted with curves. Both the bats had so many handle styles to them. The regulations were very little at the time. The bat had to be less than forty two inches long and less than two and a half inches thick. On the day that Bud came to see him play, Browning broke his bat. Thus, Bud went over to Browning and convinced him to come with him to his Dad’s shop to make a new bat (Oldham). They grabbed a slab of wood to make the bat (Cantu). The wood was from a White Ash tree. They began handcrafting the bat from the wood with Bud’s carpentry skills and Browning’s knowledge on a good baseball bat (Oldham). They used a wood lathe, turning chisels, and other tools (Cantu). Bud would tweak the bat, then Browning wood swing it. They kept doing this till Browning said it was just right. The bat was named the “Falls City Slugger”. The name, “Falls City Slugger”, came from the stretch of rapids in the Ohio River (“Timeline”). The next day Browning got three hits on three at bats with the bat

Baseballs are hit into the outfield for base hits and extra base hits on a regular basis and the need for proper mechanics to accurately

     High tech aluminum baseball bats aren’t quite as new to the game as many people may think. Author, Patrick Hruby, wrote in Sports Illustrated, “introduced in the mid-1970’s… metal bats have become increasingly potent, forged with alloys… pressurized air chambers” (Hruby 42). Over the

Even today, people continue to argue that aluminum bats are safer than wood bats even with scientific studies proving this argument false. Yes wood bats can break and potentially injure someone, but aluminum bats can be much more dangerous because of the speed at which the ball leaves the bat. For instance, when a ball is pitched at 90 mph, it comes off the bat at 108 mph reaching the pitcher’s mound in .375 seconds. With pitchers throwing at speeds up to 100 mph, the pitcher only has 0.030 seconds or less to react to a ball coming straight back at them. According to studies, it takes a person 0.095 seconds to blink an eye; this proves it’s impossible for a pitcher to react to the potential speed of a ball being hit by an aluminum bat. This could lead to horrific injuries such as fractured skulls, broken jaws, comas, and even death. In 2009, 108,976 baseball players were reported hospitalized due to injuries related to the use of aluminum

Next you are going to need a bat that fits the size you are. Bats have different lengths and weights. Usually in high school and mostly middle school, people use a drop 3. Which is 3 ounces lighter than the length of the bat.

Today, there are many brands of bats, almost all of them outer shells. Today, wood bats are still being used. Cleats are a big part of how softball has changed over the years. The first cleats were “ Soccer-style” golfers, and people in the armed forces wore them (Phoenix Bats, 2018). The cleats have very long spikes, and you have to buy them separately for $1.50 (Phoenix Bats, 2018).

Out of all the vast variety of sports there are, baseball is the most challenging and difficult sport to play. No other sport compares to the degree of difficulty that you have to deal with, like you do in playing the game of baseball. There are so many different elements that make this game the most difficult. Three major elements stick out in my mind as to why this wonderful sport is the toughest of all. The three main factors in my mind are the increased physical and hand eye coordination component, the mental aspect of this game, and the human interdependence between umpires, which are a vital part in every play.

The new rules of modern day baseball involved the ability to steal bases, how the fields were built, and how many players are allowed on one team in the MLB. Bat sizes along with pitchers mounds have been changed as well for new requirements in the MLB. The new rules also allowed a batter to take a free base when hit by a pitch, or when taken four balls out of the strike zone. Many changes have been changed since starting the game until todays game, such as, instead of a team winning when one side scored twenty-one aces, a team today wins by scoring the most runs through nine innings of baseball. In 1858, strikes were introduced and now batters could get called out on strikes. In 1863 the bat size regulation was introduced, someone had to have a required size bat to play. Batting averages were introduced in 1865 along with the batter being able to call a low or high pitch in 1867. The most recent rule was in 2008 when the MLB added limited instant reply to be in affect for all games, this started August 29, 2008. In todays baseball, there are rules in which a limited amount of players can be on a team, and all the extra players go to either free agency or go to double-AA or triple-AAA. The save rule was finally changed in 1975 along with the suspension of players using bats that are filled, flattened, or doctored.

During the bounce test, the ball may have been released from different points. Although it was supposed to be released from its bottom, human error may have compromised the precision of this measurement. To improve the design of the bounce test, the ball’s bottom point should be marked, and the ball should always be released from there. During the ramp test, the ball may also have been released from different points. Although the ball was supposed to be placed on the ramp so that it would be released from the front, human error may also have compromised the precision of this measurement. In addition, human error may have caused unintentional and unnecessary force applied to the ball. To solve these design issues, a door should be made that holds the ball at a certain position for a fixed amount of time before the experimenter released the ball. During the catapult test, the ball may have been held back for an excessive amount of time. To resolve this experimental design issue, a fixed time to hold the ball back should be

Baseball is a sport of many skills and figuring out the weaker part between all the skills is very challenging in baseball because it’s broken down into so many parts of the game. The sports are divided into offensive technical, offensive tactical, defensive technical and defensive tactical. All of these skills have a very strict guideline that one will fail without the other. In this paper, it will go through the details of the most important part and yet the weakest part in the youth baseball today. Offensive technical skills have been the struggle in youth kids these days because of the facts everyone wants to hit for a home run. Home run shouldn’t be the focal point of the offensive, but in today games it really has been the team in the professional really just want that guy who can hit fifty plus home run in a season.
