2012 Rawlings Plasma: YBPLA3 Youth

by nolepark - Mar 08, 2012

Pros: My son is 11 about 5'1" and weighs 72 lbs he has always struggled with power. Not anymore he's hitting the ball deep consistently. Never gets stingers as well. Great bat my son has tremendous confidence at the plate now and can't wait to go to practice now. Everyone needs to buy this bat for their son. It will revolutinize their game. Thanks Rawlings!!!

Cons: All the kids on the team want to use it. Need to tell the other Dads where to buy one.

by Steven T - Mar 09, 2012

Pros: Looks great, evenly balanced. Bought this for my 9 yr. old and he has great bat speed with it -13 drop is great. The ball explodes off this bat, just as good as a Demarani or Easton that costs much more. This bat is a steal!

Cons: All the other kids want to use it!

Alloy and aluminum are basically the same. The biggest differences is the thickness of the alloy used..

The 5150 is going to use a higher quality of alloy so I would give the edge to the 5150.
