Description

Unrivaled performance and feel for the game’s emerging talent. For the first time ever, gapped wall barrel technology comes to USSSA baseball in the 2023 Louisville Slugger Meta (-10) USSSA Bat. The unprecedented Gapped Wall EKO Composite Barrel design features a low compression outer barrel that improves performance, regardless of swing speed, while a stiff inner wall helps young players elevate their power potential. This three-piece design uses a vibration dampening VCX2 Connection System and GT1 End Cap for enhanced comfort and feel. No matter a player’s age or approach at the plate, Meta helps take their tools to the next level, turning elite bat speed into serious production.WARNING: Most bats are made to standards of governing bodies, including any certifications shown on this bat. Still, a hitter can generate batted ball speeds that present a risk of serious injury or death to fielders, nearby players, coaches, umpires, and spectators. Be alert and aware of all batters, and use appropriate protective equipment at all times, on a baseball or softball field or near a batter.

  • Great bat but cracks with power
Size: 31"/21 oz Style: -10
Great balance. Great bat. But…if your kid is a hitter,,it will not last long. My 12 year old during normal hitting cracks it in about a month. However, manufacturer stands behind their warranty. Great bat but buy two if your kid is strong.

  • The crank is real with this one.
Size: 29"/19 oz Style: -10
Super awesome pop. My son loves the weight and can crank this stick. His hitting has magnified since receiving this slugger meta.

  • Unbelievable deal!
Size: 28"/18 oz Style: -10
I had reservations about ordering this after reading some of the reviews. I coach LL and I’ve had a couple kids with this same bat and they loved theirs. One kid’s cracked after 1 and a half seasons but that sounds about right as far as how long a composite bat will endure. The bat arrived brand new, still wrapped in original wrapper. My son was using the new alloy Cat X2 which is quite expensive. Nothing wrong with that bat, but this one has SO MUCH pop that we decided to go for it since it was such a good price. We’ve got nothing negative to say about it. He’s absolutely smoking the balls and it’s not like he wasn’t doing that with the Marucci but he’s really punishing them now. Composites don’t last long but so far this bat has absolutely been worth it. If you’re on the fence like I was, don’t hesitate anymore. I’m glad we took the chance. You will be too. ... show more

  • This bat has major pop
Size: 27"/17 oz Style: -10
This bat comes hot out of the wrapper. My son has been hitting bombs with this bat. Normally not a power hitter (not much of a hitter at all actually), but since his friend bought their bat he was hitting excellent, we bought one and he is smashing the ball now. Excellent bat1

  • Not durable compared to previous models
Size: 31"/21 oz Style: -10
We had the single piece meta one and it held up really well so we figured we would give this a try. After some break in swings off a tee it hit nice for a couple of 11u games. We never used it off a pitching machine. During the 4th game my son hit it near the sweet spot but you could hear that something cracked. Nothing was visible but the bat no longer had pop. We sent it in for warranty and they replaced it. After 2 games with the replacement bat, samething happened. Replacement bat is also dead and unfortunately you only get one replacement. No visible cracks. I would avoid this model even at a low price as it isn't worth the hassle. ... show more

  • Great Looking Bat But A Little Heavy for my 8yo
Size: 28"/18 oz Style: -10
great looking bat but might be a little end loaded. my 8yo said it felt heavier than his marucci catx2 which is also 28inch with a drop 10. we might just use it for team practice until he can get a little stronger

  • Baseball bat

Bat lasted a long time. Great pop out of the box. Hit a lot of balls over season. Bat went dead towards end of season, sound changed and noticeably different hitting distance. No physical damage seen. Would definitely buy it again.
