Ask A QuestionWhat will have the most pop? The Miken Triad or this Marucci Black 2?
The 2013 Marucci Black 2: MSBB28 Senior League and Miken Triad: STRI10 models both have extended sweet spots and feature the newest BPF 1.15 performance certification. They will have similar performance, but the flexes differ between models. The Black 2 has a stiffer flex than the Triad.
I'm a contact hitter with some power. I bat 2nd in my lineup. What do you suggest for me? The Miken Triad, Easton XL2, or the Marucci Black 2?
The 2013 Marucci Black 2: MSBB28 Senior League bat will help eliminate hand sting and vibration. It will also be very balanced. The Miken Triad will be a two-piece fully composite design that will also be super balanced in swing weight. The XL2 may feel too barrel heavy. I would recommend the Triad.
I bought a 31/20 Black 2 on Saturday and took it to the cages with my 10 year old. After about 50 hits, he dropped it to pick up some balls and I heard a distinct rattle. I tried it, and there was no vibration if you hit sweet spot but definite rattle if you hit the ball off the end. Returned it on Monday and Dick's Sporting Goods made an exception to their bat rule because they thought for sure it was broken. Got a new one, unwrapped it in the store and saleguy dropped in on rug...perfect metallic solid ping sounds...what you would expect. Back to the cages, 25 hits ... and the rattle returned. My son then went on to get three solid impressive hits during the game. Marucci Customer Support has never heard of this issue. Anyone know if this is expected and is not actually an issue?
Rattles like that are often caused by a small piece or pieces of epoxy glue used on the endcap. Sometimes after this resin hardens and the bat is used, a piece or two can break off and rattle around inside the bat. This is common in a lot of bats on the market. This will not effect the performance of the bat, but it is something that should be covered under warranty through Marucci. Also, if your batting cages use those yellow dimpled pitching machine balls, the likelihood of any bat developing a rattle will increase.
Product Description
New for 2013! The all new Marucci Black 2 picks up right where the original Black left off. The extended barrel and massive sweet spot are back, but the Black 2 takes your game further than ever before. A more even balance point gives players complete control so that they can hit the sweet spot on ANY pitch. Plus, new anti-vibration technology, featuring a Kevlar-reinforced grip, means players don't have to give a second thought to hand sting ever again. The two-piece Black 2 features a seamless construction that maximizes the transfer of energy from barrel to ball. The barrel is made from Marucci's AZ3000 Aerospace Alloy that provides maximum responsiveness and durability. The extended barrel design of the Black 2 gives it a larger sweet spot and more jump off of the bat for MORE DISTANCE behind every hit! The handle is made from Marucci's carbon composite and fortified with their patented Unequal aramid-reinforced grip that silences the sting of off-center hits. When you swing the Marucci Black 2, expect nothing less than the best feeling bat EVER. Marucci: Made of Metal, Born from Wood! The Black 2 features the USSSA 1.15 BPF stamp. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!
About Marucci Bats
When Marucci saw his 4 year old son Gino slide head first into home plate at his first T-ball game (when most of the kids on the team didn't know the difference between first base and third base, or which one to run to), he knew his son shared his love for the game. However, after two seasons of hearing the "clink" of the metal bat in the backyard, Jack and Gino could bear the sound no more.
Searching for a child-size wooden bat proved to be quite difficult, even in the age of the Internet where everything is for sale. Most of the big companies didn't offer smaller bats and would only m.... read more
