Youth Genuine Y125 Natural-Black Baseball Bat

Starting off with this:: Wooden bats can (and will) break easier than a metal or composite bat, its just a fact of wooden bats. One wrong swing on an inside pitch/hit on the handle and it can be firewood. That being said, this bat is super affordable, durable, and looks decent too. We will be getting another if it happens to break this season I bought this for my sons last fall season of 7/8 coach pitch (Fall 2024), just to change things up for him. He's getting hits in games, practice, and at home on the tee. This bat has gone through the wringer and came out ready for more on the other side. Realistically, this bat has probably gone through 300-400 hits, and however many fouls/tips, with no issue by my son and an extra kid or two on his team that wants to try a wooden bat for once. Its 28" long, is approximately a drop 5 (making it heavier than standard youth composite/1 piece bats), so my son had some initial adjustment time to it. It comes with no grip so be sure to grab some before swinging, wood bats are relatively slick (even with batting gloves and no grip). 30$ for a kids wood bat? Can't beat that. Solid choice for anyone playing ball for a while, or just trying one out for the first time

When our son’s best friend, let's call him “The Energizer Bunny in Cleats,” showed up on the first day of summer and just sort of, well, never left, we knew we'd need reinforcements. So, we got him the Louisville Slugger Youth Genuine Y125 Natural-Black Baseball Bat. This dude, all 180 pounds of scrappy, baseball-loving energy, tried using my cherished, one-of-a-kind, money-signed Yasiel Puig bat. It was a close call when he almost stepped up to the plate with it! That’s when we decided it was high time to get him his own wooden beast to swing. We handed over this sleek, natural-black beauty to our little Mexican dynamo, and boy, did he make it his own. First thing he does? Slathers it in pine tar like it’s a BBQ and goes to town. But hey, it worked magic – he clobbered 34 home runs in our local derby (we're talking old-school head-to-head rules, none of this new-fangled stuff). Pros: 1. **Durability:** If it can survive this hyperactive teenager's non-stop summer antics, it can survive anything. 2. **Performance:** Clearly, 34 home runs don't lie. 3. **Versatility:** Perfect for home run derbies, backyard games, and apparently, pretending to be a Major Leaguer. Cons: 1. **Pine Tar Magnet:** Prepare yourself – this bat will get sticky. 2. **Might Attract Energetic Teens:** Warning – providing this bat may result in structurally impossible summers where guests overstay their welcome. All in all, if you need a bat that can handle the whirlwind of summer, keep your sacred memorabilia safe, and transform an enthusiastic player into a home run champ, the Louisville Slugger Youth Genuine Y125 has got your back – and then some!

My son loves this bat. It's of great quality and is perfect for my little leaguer to practice with. It isn't too heavy but definitely has that true wooden bat feel.

Nice quality bat! I bought this bat for my 6 and 8 year-old boys to play with at home. It is a little big for them but they’ll grow into it. It’s a nice size for maybe a 10 year old and up I would say. I got the 29” bat. Nice grip and sturdy quality. Louisville Slugger bats are always great quality in my opinion and they perform well! It was also really nice and shiny when we bought it and the finish has held up so far. I would highly recommend this bat!

It was OK. It came in with a crack and it broke after a year and it hitch good but the other bad part is that the paint comes off and it gets on your balls. It’s good for tournaments and stuff, but do not buy if you want to hit off the tea cause it will stay in your balls.

It’s awesome. Perfect weight, perfect size, perfect color

Son uses this bat as a warm up bat for the added weight, is it made out of premium quality wood? Probably not and I don't expect it to be for this price point. It gets the job done for what he uses it for, if your looking for a gamer wood bat maybe look at something else. But for practice/warm-ups its durable and gives the feedback you would expect from a wood bat. Son normally swings a 28" or 29" drop 10 bat. Went with a 27" of these so the weight wouldn't be to drastic of a difference seeing wood bats like these are normally drop 3/5.

Es liviano

Loved the color and style but didn't last. My son broke it while hitting a few balls with just his Dad at the park. Very upset that this much money was spent and didn't last the season.

The bat is a very good bat for playing outside. a good birthday present for little kids. dont recommend hitting in an actual baseball game though, it broke first swing :(. all in all good bat

My son used this to practice his swing and hit off his tee. One solid hit from an actual pitch and it snapped.
