Bat Benefits The Alpha ALX bat brings to us the trusted and reliable one-piece, all-alloy design. Whenever you settle on a bat with this type of build you can typically expect to see excellent performance AND durability! However, don't believe for a moment that Easton took it easy when they built this bat. It is going to be outfitted with their R5 Alloy which is lightweight and powerful. And to support the R5 material, Easton enlists their FlyWall Barrel Tech that incorporates different wall thicknesses to the inside of the barrel. This allows for excellent performance along the entire length of the barrel and not just on the meat of the sweetspot. Grab this drop 10 bat with its large 2 3/4" barrel diameter! If you have a player within the 7-12-year-old age range, there is a good shot that this bat could be the one for them. As well, the bat should feature some balance to its feel and be easy for both contact and power hitters to use! Easton has succeeded in being a market leader for baseball and softball bats. And since they're a market leader, they know that they have to support their customers. They will get you the information needed to send the bat to Easton for a replacement.
