Rawlings wood bats have defined the careers of numerous baseball greats over the years and continue to represent Rawlings' core value - quality and innovation. This modernized design offers breakthrough technologies and progressive materials that unite to drive performance while increasing one's batting average. It all starts with the VELO barrel design which maximizes swing speed and control for the ultimate experience during every at bat. VELO baseball bats are built for players looking for a fast balanced stick. The Birch construction offers an extremely dense wood for a much harder hitting surface and stiffer flex in comparison to other woods. This allows energy to transfer efficiently to the baseball for further ball fight in each hit. With a 110 turning model and a balanced swing weight, the PAI13B is typically preferred by a power hitter. Rawlings wood baseball bats remain the authentic, established choice for those seeking to significantly enhance their offense. Rawlings: The Finest in the Field!

Average Ratings Based on 15 Customer Reviews
Pros: feels great in .the hand good balance even though the barrel is huge, cant want to swing it
Cons: point could be a little brighter but not really a bis deal
Pros: Bats perform well in cage, needs to see how they work in game
Cons: cant say anything bad until I see how they work in game situation
Pros: Good weight balance and nice sweet spot.
Cons: Hit an outside pitch on the end and broke it in 3 pieces. Bat was a month old but that is what happens with wood bats.
Pros: Can here a noticeable difference from the inexpensive ash bats I have been using over the years
Cons: No dot, so questions remains but I have worked to focus on barreling the ball so as long I don’t get jammed too often I feel confident. A little barrel heavy.
Pros: Birch is the way to go. Very durable.
Cons: Little too top heavy. Handle us a little too thick for what I was looking for.
Pros: Price Customer service
Cons: Purchased the 2 pack for an adult wood bat league. I have played many many baseball games in my life and have never had a bat snap during batting practice the very first time out of the box...well it happened. This was basic BP with live pitching. Bat snapped. Sent an email questioning the warranty and told there was none. The customer service at justbats understood my concern of durability because a bat should never break during the first use!
Pros: very easy to buy from the site. Bats are nice bang for the buck, i've only used the birch so far and it has great pop. Took a jam shot and bat held up great, i've had previous bats break with the same contact. Great sign.
Cons: none at the moment.
Pros: This bat is pretty well balance for a 33 inch wooden bat and has a lovely sound with some pop.
Cons: Black part of bat will have a not so nice looking smudge after using for awhile. Like a white drag.
Pros: Price point Unbelievable quick delivery Nice sweet spot -
Cons: None so far
Pros: Cheap, durable, handle feels great. Wanted to try out birch wood and was NOT disappointed. This model is both cheap and very well designed. Worth every penny.
Cons: None that I have seen through 3 months of summer league action.
Pros: Feels good in the hand and great when swinging
Cons: No cons that I can think of
Pros: All categories are checked 5 stars because these are the bats I choose every time I get new bats. They are excellent.
Cons: None to mention.
Pros: Good finish and durable, took two pitches of the handle. Good pop as well.
Cons: This bat is HEAVY. Advertised as approx drop 3. In reality what I received was a drop 1. It is 33in 32oz. ( I weighed it). 30.5 or 31 would be acceptable, it’s wood after all. 32 ounces is absurd. Not really an I13. General shape is similar but has a THICK handle , with a different barrel taper and knob. I would look else where in hindsight. While it looks nice and is priced nicely, there are too many things that actually matter (weight turn etc) that I find completely miss the mark.
Pros: Solid Wood Bat!
Cons: Maybe not as much pop as bats costing more.
Pros: Just got my bat today, ive been trying out differnt turn models i have a 271 victus jc24 32" n a rawlings maple ace 243 33" n this 33" i13 feels great it comes with the option to get it cupped or uncupped so i called just bats and told them uncupped please please please n it came cupped darn it. Hopfully Just bats makes it rite when its sent back.
Cons: All 5s across the board besides this incedent it felt great prolly wouldve had sum pop dont even get to try it

About the Brand

Rawlings is a major manufacturer of competitive team sports equipment and apparel for baseball, basketball, and football, as well as licensed MLB, NFL, and NCAA retail products. Rawlings is a major supplier to professional, collegiate, interscholastic, and amateur organizations worldwide, including the Official Baseball Supplier to Major League Baseball.
The first real innovation in glove making occurred in 1912 when Rawlings Sporting Goods Company introduced the "Sure Catch" glove, which was "endorsed by leading players all over the country." The Sure Catch was a one-piece glove with sewn-in finger channels and looked better suited for a duck's foot than a man's hand. Catchers' mitts used at the time were large and bulky with a single leather thong passing for a web.
In 1920, Bill Doak, a journeyman pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals, approached Rawlings with an idea for improving the baseball glove from a mere protective device to a genuine aid in fielding. The "Bill Doak" model was so revolutionary that it stayed in Rawlings' line until 1953. Its key feature was a multi-thong web laced into the first finger and thumb, which created for the first time in baseball's young life, a natural pocket.
In 1925, Rawlings unveiled a three-fingered fielder's glove, and ten years later improved the Bill Doak model with a two-piece leather web. At the same time, the "T" web became a rage for first basemen's mitts. The pocket underwent a pronounced change in 1941 when the Trapper Mitt, also known as the Claw, appeared. The "Deep Well" pocket was so unique that Rawlings quickly patented it. The design was improved in 1950 by adding a leather piece across the top. Another significant creation occurred in 1948 with the three-fingered Playmaker. A five-fingered fielder's model, with all fingers laced together, provided greater pocket control.
The six-fingered Trap-Eze evolved in the 1960's. In more recent years, Rawlings produced the Fastback design, which gives a glove a snugger fit, greater extension, and overall control. The Holdster is a slot through which a finger can be extended for additional protection from impacts on the pocket. Then, there is the Edge-U-Cated Heel with its extended U-shaped lacing and the Pro H Web and much-copied Basket Web.
Some of Rawlings's more recent glove innovations also include the unique Spin-Stopper design which reduces ball spin when the ball hits the glove, and the Cantilever glove design feature that provides a cushioned area between the hand and the glove's palm area. In all, Rawlings has produced and patented more functionally innovative glove features and designs than that of any other glove manufacturer. The result is that the modern baseball glove is much larger, more comfortable, better padded, and made to last far longer than its ancestors. It is not uncommon to see today's Major League players wearing the same Rawlings glove they wore during their college playing days. In fact, Rawlings is the #1 glove in the major leagues. Rawlings maintains about 65 models of baseball and softball mitts and gloves in its line. The prototypes of virtually all of them have been field-tested by professionals before entering a sporting goods dealer's inventory.
