Description
Since 2004, the team at B45 has understood the awesome characteristics that a bat made from Yellow Birch wood can offer a hitter. With maple-like hardness combined with ash-like flexibility and forgiveness, B45's Pro Select Yellow Birch wood baseball bats are finding their way into the hands of some of the game's best players including All Star catcher Jonathan Lucroy. The B45 Jonathan Lucroy Yellow Birch Baseball Bat: JL20R Black is one of Lucroy's top recommendations as it combines the handle from his game model with the barrel of a 243.

The large barrel provides an end loaded swing weight which allows a player to whip through the hitting zone for increased power and pop while the regular sized knob and 0.95 inch handle provides the ultimate in comfort and control. B45: The Few. The Proud. The Believers.

About the Brand
Back in 2004, forest engineers from Québec City, Canada, believed that Yellow Birch would make exceptional baseball bats. They joined their knowledge with the experience of professional baseball players to handcraft the first ever bat made out of Yellow Birch, wood that possesses extraordinary physical characteristics.
Laboratory and game situation testing then proved that B45 Yellow Birch bats were giving baseball players a good swinging feeling and broke significantly less than other types of bats. Hard like maple and flexible as ash, B45 bats have significantly lower breakage rate enhancing hitting performance, lowering overall cost, and adding a measure of safety to the game.
Still based in Québec City, Canada, B45 is more than ever known for its quality and innovation in the wood baseball bat industry. Through years of collaboration among our staff's forest engineers and professional players, B45 offers the finest bats made throughout North America and the world.
Approved for professional play since almost a decade, B45 Yellow Birch bats are still proudly handcrafted by former pro players who know the ins and outs of the game and the importance of swinging a quality bat. Whether you are playing in the Show or your Sunday morning league, our bat makers will handcraft your bat with the same passion and precision that will end up being the right product for you.
In 2015, B45 moved to a new ownership group led by former Major League pitcher Eric Gagné. With the help of new brand ambassadors like All-Star outfielder Carlos Gonzalez, All-Star catcher Jonathan Lucroy, and young pitcher Phillippe Aumont, the company is growing faster than ever, on both professional and amateur levels. Everyone in the company is driven by a renewed energy and so are our new Believers.
