Louisville Slugger Meta -5 USSSA Baseball Bat: WBL2823010
You'll be feeling alive after driving balls all over the park with the Louisville Slugger Meta -5!
Bat Benefits
The Louisville Slugger Meta is back with a new iteration, determined to prove itself as a top choice in USSSA baseball once again!
This gold and black Meta boasts a three-piece, all-composite design, inheriting advanced features from previous Meta models while introducing some exciting innovations. Notably, it incorporates a linear EKO Composite Barrel, which is a single-wall barrel profile engineered to be light-swinging with an optimized sweet spot and the truest sound in the game. This technology helps maintain a balanced swing feel while simultaneously enhancing its performance and power.
To minimize discomfort from sting and vibration upon contact, Louisville Slugger integrates their VCX2 Connection System, which works in synergy with the EKO Composite Gapped barrel, efficiently facilitating the transfer of energy from bat to ball.
It is important to note that Louisville Slugger is releasing two versions of the -5 Meta's this year - with the barrel diameter being the only difference. This specific model has a diameter of 2 5/8", the smaller of the two, which many travel ball players will find beneficial as they prepare to graduate into high school play and the world of BBCOR bats!

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.
