Victus, Outdated Hickory, Marucci, Chandler, Louisville Slugger function in our 2022 World Sequence between the Phillies and the Astros. Two completely devastating offensive groups with a hefty portion of the most effective postseason hitters in our lifetime. Benefit from the present, and listed here are the bats to maintain a watch out for.
Bryce Harper has 10 homers in 30 postseason video games. That’s a 54 homer tempo over 162… towards the easiest pitchers within the greatest moments of his life. Don’t let the nerds idiot ya: clutch lives.
From our gear database:
“Bryce is on a legendary heater right now and he’s been doing most of his damage, including the pennant-winning game 5 homer off the Padres, with a Victus FT23 Maple bat. The FT23, available at Dick’s for $200, is named for Fernando Tatis and features an endloaded swing weight with a big barrel and a flared knob. Measurements: 34 inch, 31 ounce”
Its arduous to think about that the Astros may have improved after the departure of Carlos Correa, a $100 million greenback participant in his prime. Peña, a hardened ballplayer after three cold-ass seasons on the College of Maine, appears in his factor because the temperature dips in October.
Peña swings a 34″/31 oz. stick to a pure coloured deal with and pink barrel.
The Albert Pujols APV, derived from the basic Slugger i13, has a flared knob, a medium-sized deal with, and medium barrel. It’s barely endloaded, which provides robust hitters like Peña a little bit additional whip by the zone.
You will get Peña’s APV mannequin on Victus’ web site beginning at $209 utilizing their customized bat builder, or store the unique Marucci AP5 at Dick’s in varied iterations.
Yordan Alvarez | Victus APV-P 34/31
Yordan Alvarez, the Astros’ reply to Aaron Choose, swings a Victus AP5-P, Jeremy Peña’s bat with a slight modification to the barrel.
You will get Peña’s APV mannequin on Victus’ web site beginning at $209 utilizing their customized bat builder, or store the unique Marucci AP5 at Dick’s in varied iterations.
I noticed one thing questioning whether or not Alex Bregman was on a Corridor of Fame observe. I don’t know, however I do know he’s been kickin’ everyone’s ass since he joined the league.
“Alex Bregman swings a Marucci RC custom cut, 33.5/31, similar to the M110 turning model, a well-balanced model that is great for young wood bat hitters.”
Bregman’s closest match is the MM20 bat on Marucci’s web site, obtainable for $170 customized.
This lineup is disgusting. They usually’re lacking Brantley!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Kyle Tucker is utilizing a 33.5″/30.5 oz. pure coloured JC1 maple bat. He’s been utilizing this mannequin for a number of years, relationship again to his rookie season in 2018.
The JC1 is reduce to the M110 mannequin’s profile. Outdated Hickory says it ‘has a medium barrel with a short taper to a thick handle that goes straight into the knob.’ In case you are searching for an especially balanced bat that has an extended barrel, the JC1 is ideal for you.
You may customise the JC1 to match Tucker’s for $195 or you will get the inventory model for $175 at OldHickoryBats.com.”
Kyle Schwarber | Louisville Slugger KS12 Maple 34/31
One other all-time nice postseason hitter. Ho Hum.
From our HR Derby put up:
“Schwarber is swinging a Louisville Slugger KS12, which Slugger affords as a customized for $180 and Dick’s has inventory for $170.
From our earlier description of Schwarber’s unique favourite bat within the Massive Leagues, the Dinger KS10:
‘He swings a 34 inch Maple that Dinger calls a protracted barreled bat with a flared knob. It has a modified 271 deal with and a modified M6 barrel (Starling Marte). Dinger says Schwarber likes his KS-10 as a result of it’s a joyful medium between end-loaded and balanced.’”
Yuli Gurriel | Marucci AO1.87 Maple 33.5/31
We haven’t gotten particulars on this one but and the mannequin quantity is totally unfamiliar to me. The bat is squared off at each ends with an solely barely tapered knob.
Yuli throws the fingers in addition to anyone and he’s on Bregman’s tail, approaching the highest 10 all-time postseason hits and RBI lists. You may depend 2017 out, and he’s nonetheless a man you need up in a giant spot.
Rhys Hoskins | Chandler RH7.3 34/32
Rhys Hoskins’ bat seems like fairly the bludgeoning system. We don’t have something from Chandler but on it, however Victus despatched us comparability image beneath:
Rhys’ RH7.3 (black barrel) has the Jeff McNeil-type knobless deal with with what seems like a typical medium barrel. I just like the look of it. Good for spiking, too.
When most catchers had been operating out of fuel, JT Realmuto put the Phillies within the playoffs together with his second half offense.
“JT Realmuto swings an Old Hickory custom Maple bat, the JTR1 model. The JTR1 bat has a DP15 (S318) barrel with Nolan Arenado’s NA4 handle, which is a “shovel” knob.
Anybody who desires this bat should make a customized order with Outdated Hickory, as Realmuto’s mannequin is just not obtainable in any other case. Realmuto’s bat has an ebony barrel, black deal with, and he cups the tip.
An in depth various is perhaps the DP15, obtainable at OldHickoryBats.com.”
