Louisville Slugger Solo -8 USSSA Baseball Bat: WBL2485010
This bat is light in weight and ready to rip at the plate!
Bat Benefits
If you are shopping for a USSSA player participating in the 13U division, then highly consider this bat in the drop 8 size. Within the 13U division of USSSA baseball, you are required to use either a drop 8 or drop 5 bat. And if you are buying for a player that needs something especially light swinging, then look no further than this Solo bat. It has an all-alloy design topped off with a composite end cap. That combination of materials always allows for a really light-feeling bat.
As well, be sure to note that this bat has the USSSA baseball stamp with the new look. It will have bear the words "NTS Tested" on it.
Warranty
A 100+ year old company does not get to be in existence today without knowing how to take care of their customers. Louisville Slugger most definitely covers this bat with a full twelve (12) month manufacturer’s warranty period that extends from the purchase date. If you buy the bat from JustBats and run into any warranty issues with those 12 months, do not hesitate to reach out to our Bat Experts. They are knowledgeable on bat warranties and will be able to get you all the needed info to begin a warranty replacement process with Louisville Slugger.

Pros: Insane amount of pop!!! We had the solo 618 loved every minute of it was one of the best bats we’ve ever used. The -8 seems even better ball rockets ?? off the bat !!
Cons: I’m not sure if it’s a con but on the lower miss hit you feel a slight vibration however I also think that’s a good thing because it teaches you how to barrel up the ball better.

Compare this to the Victus Vandal in the -8 category. Not concerned about price, which bat is best for a 12 year old contact hitter.
Jason
Both the Louisville Slugger Solo -8 USSSA Baseball Bat: WBL2485010 and Victus Vandal are one-piece alloy bats with composite end caps. They are very similar in terms of design concept and swing weight feel.

Can this be used in cold weather?
Heather Snow
This bat can be used in cold weather! The grip on the bat is one that will be really good at reducing that extra sting that the cold weather gives.

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.
