Today, Louisville Slugger is the choice of more than 60 per cent of all Major League players. In college baseball, Louisville Slugger TPX has totally dominated the game, earning seven national championships in the past decade.
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, the Louisville Slugger introduced the Exogrid, a hybrid bat featuring a composition transition in the handle, but an aluminum shell. 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 plus 20 alloy that the company says makes the toughest bat on the market today.
