Best Alloy Bat on the Market Alex Ballgame player
Pros: I do not like composite bats. They have to be broken in and this bat is HOT out of the wrapper. My teammates have told me that the 5150's sweet ping sound is intimidating to them and they can identify when a barreled up ball is coming from a Rawlings 5150 bat. My new 2017 31/26 model is definitely more end-loaded compared to my 2016 32/27 model. According to Rawlings, the end-loaded bat has a 10% increased swing weight so I got a bat that was an ounce lighter. If you want a 2017 balanced bat model, you have to buy the 5150 VELO but it is not worth the price difference. Marucci sponsors my 14U national travel team. After testing and comparing the Cat 7, this bat has more pop. I accidentally hit my metal Jugs pro style tee on my backswing and the bat did not dent so it is very durable. I have had no problems with vibration and I rated the bat 5 stars in that area but you have to understand that it is a one piece bat and will sting more than any 2-piece on a mis-hit.
Cons: None...it is the best alloy bat on the market.
Mr. Tim Utechtt (grandpa) other
Pros: Great balance and feel with no vibration. Ball jumps off of the bat and has a loud sweet ping that keeps the defense back on their heels.
Cons: None so far.

What drop is this bat? hayden
My son uses the Omaha 517 31/26 currently and it can be a bit sluggish at times as he's gone from drop 10 to drop 5 this year now that he's 13. Would this be less end loaded than the Omaha or what options would be maybe a bit more balanced? Brad
Is it suitable for all ages? WHONNNNN
How does this compare to the 2016 Rawlings 5150 Alloy Senior League Baseball Bat: SL5R5? ro
What is the difference between the 2016 5150 and the 2017 5150. Which one would you recommend for middle school ball. Jack
My 12u son is looking at switching from a Mako to either a 5150, Cat 7, or XL3 because he wants to start using alloy. He needs a bat for the remaining 25 games this season as well as next season before his league adopts the new bat regulations. Can we expect any of these three bats to last that long if he's only using it for games and occasional BP? I just don't have any idea of bat life for alloy bats. Taylorman22
About the Brand
Rawlings is a major manufacturer of competitive team sports equipment and apparel for baseball, basketball, and football, as well as licensed MLB, NFL, and NCAA retail products. Rawlings is a major supplier to professional, collegiate, interscholastic, and amateur organizations worldwide, including the Official Baseball Supplier to Major League Baseball.
The first real innovation in glove making occurred in 1912 when Rawlings Sporting Goods Company introduced the "Sure Catch" glove, which was "endorsed by leading players all over the country." The Sure Catch was a one-piece glove with sewn-in finger channels and looked better suited for a duck's foot than a man's hand. Catchers' mitts used at the time were large and bulky with a single leather thong passing for a web.
In 1920, Bill Doak, a journeyman pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals, approached Rawlings with an idea for improving the baseball glove from a mere protective device to a genuine aid in fielding. The "Bill Doak" model was so revolutionary that it stayed in Rawlings' line until 1953. Its key feature was a multi-thong web laced into the first finger and thumb, which created for the first time in baseball's young life, a natural pocket.
In 1925, Rawlings unveiled a three-fingered fielder's glove, and ten years later improved the Bill Doak model with a two-piece leather web. At the same time, the "T" web became a rage for first basemen's mitts. The pocket underwent a pronounced change in 1941 when the Trapper Mitt, also known as the Claw, appeared. The "Deep Well" pocket was so unique that Rawlings quickly patented it. The design was improved in 1950 by adding a leather piece across the top. Another significant creation occurred in 1948 with the three-fingered Playmaker. A five-fingered fielder's model, with all fingers laced together, provided greater pocket control.
The six-fingered Trap-Eze evolved in the 1960's. In more recent years, Rawlings produced the Fastback design, which gives a glove a snugger fit, greater extension, and overall control. The Holdster is a slot through which a finger can be extended for additional protection from impacts on the pocket. Then, there is the Edge-U-Cated Heel with its extended U-shaped lacing and the Pro H Web and much-copied Basket Web.
Some of Rawlings's more recent glove innovations also include the unique Spin-Stopper design which reduces ball spin when the ball hits the glove, and the Cantilever glove design feature that provides a cushioned area between the hand and the glove's palm area. In all, Rawlings has produced and patented more functionally innovative glove features and designs than that of any other glove manufacturer. The result is that the modern baseball glove is much larger, more comfortable, better padded, and made to last far longer than its ancestors. It is not uncommon to see today's Major League players wearing the same Rawlings glove they wore during their college playing days. In fact, Rawlings is the #1 glove in the major leagues. Rawlings maintains about 65 models of baseball and softball mitts and gloves in its line. The prototypes of virtually all of them have been field-tested by professionals before entering a sporting goods dealer's inventory.
