From the earliest days of the game, Louisville Slugger has always employed the most powerful technology available in the bat business. Back in the days of Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth, that meant having the most skilled craftsmen at the lathe, handcrafting bats to the most demanding specifications of the world's most demanding players. Today, it means applying the latest aerospace technology to bat making, delivering high-tech aluminum, hybrid and composite bats that give new meaning to the word "performance."

As the Official Bat of Major League Baseball, Louisville Slugger is the choice of more than 60% of all Major League players, including Derek Jeter and A-Rod. And on the college level, more national championships have been won with Louisville Slugger TPX than with any other bat.

The YB96M TPX Maverick youth baseball bat features multiple layers of aerospace grade graphite and S-glass fibers which are embedded in a specially designed toughened epoxy resin or more specifically the C1C Composite Design.

Each layer is precisely positioned at an angle determined by our exclusive, computer-designed pattern. This results in a bat with the optimum combination of performance and durability. Everything from the bat design to the equipment used to manufacture the bat was developed by the Louisville Slugger Composites R&D Lab.

Controlling every aspect of design and manufacturing ensures that every bat is consistently produced to Louisville Slugger's high quality standards.
