Louisville Slugger / TPX
Louisville Slugger baseball bats, the official bats of Major League Baseball, are created by the renowned Louisville Slugger company, which started making white ash baseball bats in 1884. Today the company makes both the traditional wood bats as well as high-end aluminum baseball bats. Louisville Slugger's history is in the hands of legends like Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron, and more modern-day professional baseball players use Louisville Slugger baseball bats than any other brand. In 2006, Louisville Slugger introduced the Exogrid, a hybrid bat featuring a composition transition in the handle, but an aluminum shell - this design is around today in many of their bats. The company claims this gives the bat a stiffened handle but still allows for a trampoline effect on the barrel. Louisville slugger bats also feature the ST+20 alloy that the company says "was designed exclusively for Louisville Slugger by Alcoa and is the strongest alloy on the bat market today" . Prices for wooden baseball bats start at $20 and run up to about $150. Louisville Slugger's composite aluminum bats also start at about $20, and their highest-end composite aluminum bats cost about $300.

About the Aluminum Types used by Louisville Slugger
7046: A durable, affordable alloy that has been an industry standby for years.
Cu31: This time-tested alloy provides a great combination of performance and durability. It was the first true high-performance bat alloy.
C405 (7055): A popular alloy used by several manufacturers for their high-end bats.
C555: An alloy that includes scandium, C555 is stated to be up to 10% stronger than C405.
Scandium XS: Developed exclusively for Louisville Slugger by Alcoa, this alloy features twice the scandium found in bats made by other manufacturers, giving it even greater strength than C555.
ST+20: Also designed exclusively for Louisville Slugger by Alcoa, ST+20 is the strongest alloy on the bat market today. If you’re looking for the ultimate high-performance alloy, this is it.
Composite Technology: Combines graphite, fiberglass and resin. Composite bats have a unique sound and feel that many batters prefer, as well as a large, forgiving sweet spot.
3X composite technology: Unique three-piece design allows barrel and handle to be designed as individual units, yet bonded to perform as an advanced 1-piece bat
Hybrid: A combination of aluminum alloy with composite materials. This gives a batter the best of two worlds: an aluminum barrel with a stiff composite handle.
H2 Technology: The next step in optimizing the composite/alloy hybrid design
Exogrid Technology: Delivers power and performance through handle stiffness and strength
Exogrid: "Power and performance through handle stiffness and strength"
