Louisville Slugger Youth Prime Ronald Acuña Jr. RA13 Maple Bat

About This Item

MAPLE WOOD PROPERTIES:

  • Incredibly Dense: Offers greater durability and pop than other types of wood
  • Close Grain: Holds wood fibers more closely together upon impact, making it one of the hardest surfaces for wood bats
  • Less Forgiving: Due to how stiff maple is, it tends to produce less forgiving contact off of mis-hits

MODEL FEATURES:

  • Youth RA13 Model: Boasts an extremely balanced feel that's great for youth players
  • Approximate -8 drop weight (+/-2)
  • ExoPro Finish: Gives you a finish you can feel in an incredibly durable top coat that not only drastically increases surface hardness, but gives you a mirror-like finish in high-gloss models, elevating the color and grain definition of the bat
  • NOTICE: Baseball/Softball Bats are only eligible for return if they have not been used.

Poor Quality

Bought this as a Christmas present for my son and it broke in his first game, 2nd time at bat, and he's in 4th grade! Granted he used it in practice but if i had to guess he had no more than 50 hits with it. Wish i looked at reviews first total waist of money.

Great Wooden Bat

Perfect for at home practice; heavier than a traditional USA or USSSA bat but light enough for a smaller player to practice with.

Terrible Broke After 15 Swings

Don’t waste your money unless you’re buying this as a joke or need kindling for a campfire. Easily the worst piece of sports equipment I’ve ever owned.

Good Wood Bat

I purchased this for my son for Christmas since he really wanted a wood bat for upcoming wood bat tournaments. So far so good!

Great Bat

I bought this to replace my son's 28" B45 and didn't have high expectations. I was wrong. The RA13 is perfect.

Great Pop!

My 11 yr old loves it. We had our first wood bay tournament and assumed the pop would be drastically less than normal. We were pleasantly surprised to see the difference was very minimal. We highly recommend this bat!

Coach

The bat cracked on the first big hit in the first game of a tournament. LS should be ashamed of making such a low quality bat.

Terrible

Do not buy. First time used in batting cage to warm up and it broke within 10 pitches.

Louisville Slugger Youth Prime Wood Bat.

My oldest son saved up his money to buy this bat. He hit with it at lesson with a trainer and loved it. The next time he used it at practice it broke. Luckily it was still under warranty and we got another one. I’m sure he will break it and when he does we’ll go a different direction.
