Description
The Louisville Slugger MLB Prime CG3-M110 Fusion Maple Wood Baseball Bat: WTLWPM110A16 Adult is designed for three-time MLB All-Star Curtis Granderson of the New York Mets. The M110, developed in 1944, is one of Louisville Slugger's oldest turning models and is consistently in the top five at the Major League level. A denser starting billet is used to offer a slightly thicker handle which provides the most balanced swing weight available. This balance provides you the player with maximum barrel control when you bring the bat through the zone for the utmost confidence at the plate. This Curtis Granderson game-day model, dubbed the CG3-M110, features a fusion black barrel that fades into a silver handle with a white knob. Louisville Slugger: The Next Generation of Wood!

What is the difference between this bat and the all black Curtis Granderson game day model? gmoney
Which wood bat has the largest and longest sweet spot. I see a C243 turn and a M110 turn, but I don't know what they mean. Could you provide some help? George
About the Brand
In 1842, J. Frederick Hillerich emigrated with his family from Baden-Baden, Germany to the United States. Eight years before, the 1834 Book of Sports had made its debut as the nation's first publication covering baseball. But when he arrived in Baltimore, J. Frederick Hillerich would never have dreamed of the future impact his family would have on America's favorite pastime.
After a short while, the Hillerichs moved to Louisville, where J. Fred started a woodworking shop in 1856. Two of his sons, Adam and John Andrew "Bud" were born in the United States and would later join their father in his business. By 1864 "J.F. Hillerich, Job Turning" was in operation and filled orders for businesses by custom-turning everything from balusters to bedposts.
The firm thrived, and by 1875 the little woodworking shop employed about 20 people. In 1880 Bud Hillerich, who was an amateur baseball player, became an apprentice in his father's shop. Young Bud made his own baseball bats along with bats for several of his teammates.
The debate over the origins of the first bat continues to generate controversy among baseball enthusiasts, but the younger Hillerich was most certainly involved in getting his father's business involved with what would become the company's signature item. According to company legend, the first bat was turned by Bud for Pete "The Old Gladiator" Browning in 1884. Browning was a star on Louisville's professional American Association team - the Eclipse. On a spring afternoon Bud, then seventeen, witnessed Browning break his favorite bat. Bud offered to make a bat for his hero, and Browning accepted. After the young wood shop apprentice lathed a quality stick from white ash, according to the story, Browning got three hits with it in the next game.
Louisville Slugger gloves are worn by more pitchers in Major League Baseball than any other glove.
