Easton Ghost X Evolution -5 USSSA Baseball Bat: SL19GXE58

Pros: Right out of the wrapper this bat is hot and ball comes off the bat super fast. Light swing feel. Great sound off the ball. Paint scheme and lizard skin grip are awesome.

Cons: For a two piece bat there is a good bit of sting on miss hits. After 5 days there is something rattling in the barrel. I'll exchange it after the season ends.

Pros: This new ghost is way better than last years model. Sound is totally different and has great POP. Love it

Cons: none

Pros: Great Pop out of the box! We’ve had it 2 weeks and so far so good .

Cons: None so far.

Pros: Bat has great pop

Cons: Bat already has an internal rattle after only 10 hits.. Contacted Easton for return and replacement..

Pros: My kid loves the feel and the pop.

Cons: Broke two bats within 1 month. The second bat only lasted 3 uses. Was still breaking in the second hitting off a tee and broke it. Such a waste and customer service is laughable. Such a bad experience getting the first one replaced. My suggestion - avoid this bat. Even the guy at the post office mentioned that he was seeing a lot of Easton bats being returned. We won't be buying Easton again.

Pros: None!

Cons: The Ghost is junk! Cheap and not worth the money! 3 kids on our team all cracked caps after 4 games! Takes a month to get a replacement unless of course YOU pay for shipping and handling. The replacement bat is junk as well. Customer service was extremely rude and very short. I'll spend the rest of my days at the ball field sharing my experience!

Pros: Great pop and sound out of the wrapper, even hotter after break in. Very little sting on mishits. 1/2 of the 13U team loved using this bat until it broke.

Cons: Like others have experienced, the end cap developed a small crack in 3rd game then shattered into several pieces during 4th game of the season. Definitely a fragile bat, recommend that it be used only in games. White paint scheme and grip get dirty fast. Kids were bummed when it broke and wanted to have a bat funeral ceremony after the game. Would not buy this bat again due to durability issues.

Pros: If it doesn’t break it has good feel and ball goes far.

Cons: This is the worst bat. I’ve had it twice and it’s broke both times. First time peice of end cap broke off. Second time was just now and it sounds like there are pebbles in it. DONT GET THIS BAT..

Pros: My son swings this bat, it is smooth and comfortable. Seeing marked improvement in hitting and confidence!

Cons: Not found any!

Pros: Price.

Cons: None

Pros: Good pop and looks good.

Cons: At my sons first tournament and developed loud rattle after 1 game.

Pros: The Evolution X has a great pop.

Cons: This bat will not last. My daughter’s first Evolution X bat lasted a month before the top broke. The replacement Evolution X lasted four months before the top of the bat broke. It’s a common problem with this bat.

Pros: Everything

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Great bat. Love the feel. Love the pop

Cons: The bat can break. My friend had one last year and we broke it

Pros: My son just finished the season with this bat. 14u with an exit velocity over 75 mph and this bat has great pop. Bat got game use from a few player’s deciding between this, a Demarini Vodoo, and an Easton Maxum (all -5).

Cons: Grip is worn and don’t know how to replace that exact one. It’s awesome looking.

Pros: Bat has great weight balance (made it easier for the switch from -10 to -5), a nice sweet spot (hardly any vibration).

Cons: Durability - a little over a month (2 tourneys) & it sounds like Lego pieces are rattling around inside bat. The original bat tape is super slippery once sweat or a little moisture gets on it.

Pros: Nice grip, great pop, teenager loves it

Cons: None as of yet

Pros: My son used this bat in a drop 8 last summer. He really like the bat. He broke the end cap about 8 months into using it. Sent bat back to Easton for warranty replacement. Easton replaced the bat with the Easton ADV 360. He has been using that bat for about five months and really likes it. He wanted to go to a drop 5 for the upcoming season. Was going to buy the ADV, but it was twice as much than the year old Ghost. Decided to take a chance on the Ghost again for the price. Easton was great on the warranty replacement.

Cons: The end cap broke on the bat, but Easton's warranty service was great.

Pros: Good pop out of the box like all Easton's. Can't wait to get it broken in good !!!!

Cons: Little more end loaded than the kids like, but they will get into the swing of it real soon.

Pros: This bat has amazing pop and a great feel. I have got jammed so much and my hand will barely hurt.

Cons: The bats cap cracked after I hit it off the end.

Pros: Nice pop and the overall feel is very nice

Cons: after 2 weeks of my team using it there is a rattling in the barrel and I was taking bp at practice and the endcap broke off.
