Marucci AP5 Youth Maple Wood Baseball Bat - USA Made, Perfect for Little League & Youth Baseball Training, Games & Practice

As someone who knows the sport it always makes me laugh when they size bats to ages by its length. Nothing worse and more unproductive than a kid using a bat that is too heavy. This bat came in at 24 ounces. Yes, I weighed it. You decide if your kid can handle it. As for the grains, they were very thin but that’s expected off the shelf.
