Need a new bat - where do you buy yours-what is your son using this year?

PS III will swing the LS Exogrid this spring. He has used Rawlings Plasma in the past. You can find bats on sale (occasionally) at Sports Authority or Dicks --- but the most reliable way to get your hands on one is via the Internet....where you may pay shipping but avoid sales tax.

That's the bat our son wants too. Hoping some one gives you a good lead that we can follow too.

Is a composite bat legal for most leagues/ tournaments/ showcases. Thought I read were sometimes they are prohibited by some sanctioning groups?

Bats up to $379.99??????? DANG!!!! Glad my oldest son is a pitcher.

However, we are always in need of size 12 cleats for the left foot. We have lots of cleats for the right foot that are in pretty good shape.

That's funny! My oldest son was a pitcher, and he always screwed up the right toe! We could have shared shoes!

I could use some rights size 13 if anyone has any.


I have not had to buy a bat in 3 years and it's been great.

Take your pitchers shoe to a rhino bedliner for trucks and they will dip the tip of the cleet and it will last the summer.try it

Lucky for me, my son has inherited my "cheap" gene and looks for good deals on all of his equipment. Santa Claus brought him a 2007 model Easton Stealth Comp that sells for $199 on sportsdiamond.com. He doesn't care about getting the "new model or if it is last year's color...

You can also get a good deal on occasion at Don Morton Sports or eastbay.

I thought the same way until I purchased a $300 glove for my pitcher son too.

Four baseball....... might check into that. I wonder if that stuff will shine up? Kevin Darwin and a friend of his was working on something and we tried it. Didn't quite work out. They've got some tweaking to do, but should eventually be a good product.

Heavy D......... MMWS, Jr. also looks for deals (for everything but baseball stuff)

RHP'er......... I told MMWS, Jr. "Dang, boy, it's not like you're out flashing leather all day, every day. You're a pitcher."

Joe..... I'll check those out, too. Thanks. How are all of the boys doing?

My son is cheap and a saver too. He just paid cash for his first car. He paid cash for the sound system, and he is a bargain hunter deluxe. He has used bats that were his brothers, bats from the year before, but decided on the new TPX Omaha 7C Composite. This year, I think I will give in.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I was able to favorite place some sites that I did not know about.

THANKS!
