SB5 Softball Bat Stats:
Barrel
The diameter of the barrel at its widest point. A bigger barrel means a bigger hitting surface and more mass out front.
2.24"
Handle
The diameter of the handle. A thinner handle whips through faster; a thicker one dampens sting and feels more stable.
0.93"
Knob
The shape at the bottom of the bat. It sets how the bat sits in your bottom hand and how much it resists slipping.
Cone Flared
Weight
