Description

Mizuno Hot Metal BBCOR Baseball Bat: B22-HOT METAL

Ooooooooh this bat is hot!!! Get after Mizuno's BBCOR edition of the Hot Metal Bat and start cracking baseballs across the diamond!

Bat Benefits

Mizuno is bringing out the Mizuno Hot Metal for another raucous year of high school and collegiate play! They build this BBCOR baseball bat in a one-piece and all-alloy design. And they've built it with their CorTech Technology to create different thicknesses of aluminum material along the length of the barrel. The advantage of doing this is that it will allow the batter to have a longer area along the barrel that they can connect with the baseball and still see great results (i.e. this technology lengthens the sweetspot). Mizuno is also putting their Optimized End Cap on the barrel end of the bat to create a booming sound and also to assist in lengthening the sweetspot.

This bat should be fairly balanced in its swing feel. It may not be quite as lightweight as some all-composite BBCOR bats that you'll find out there, but we believe that contact and power hitters should both be able to wield it!

Warranty

Ensuring that their customers are satisfied is a top priority for Mizuno. And to show that they truly care for their customers, they extend a twelve (12) month manufacturer’s warranty period on this bat. If you have purchased this bat from JustBats and are experiencing some issues with it, please reach out to the JustBats Bat Experts. The Experts will get you the information you need to begin a warranty replacement process with Mizuno.

Bat is Hot out of the wrapper Carlos Parent

Pros: My son swings a 32/29 The Goods. Took about 100 swings this weekend and this bat did not disappoint. There's no need for a $400 bat. Get this bat. it's going to be a sleeper pick. Lesson: Don't jump out to buy a bat just because the Baseball Bat Bros say so. Take some swings with a bat before buying it. They're entertaining but remember you are swinging the bat.

Cons: Grip is not lizard skin and not the best. This is an easy fix.

Buy it now Jennifer Player

Pros: Good pop feels good in my grip. Too heavy for a good swing. This review is directly from my 14yr old who uses the bat.

Cons: Vibration is strong when you catch the ball outside the sweet spot
