New USA Baseball Bat Standard goes into Effect January 1, 2018!

The new bats will be 2 3/4" barrel and marked with a USABat mark. The new bats will perform more like a "wood bat". Older bats with 2 1/4" barrel marked BPF 1.15 will not be permitted for use as of 1/1/2018. These new regulations apply to both Little League and Cal Ripken Baseball.

Be careful because many retailers are now selling the older bats at dramatic discounts. These bats will NOT be permitted for use in games as of 1/1/2018.
