My son is a 8yr old 4ft 7in 80lbs, and is playing 10 under travel baseball. He has been swinging a 28in 18oz worth that is a coach pitch bat, so he needs a new bat that will hold up in kid pitch. He has good bat speed and is a line drive hitter. Would you recommend this bat, the Marucci Cat 5, or any other bat? Something balanced with large sweet spot so he can continue to have power to all sides of the field. clint

Aubrey
My son is 4'4" and 70 lbs. He used a 29" bat last season on our travel team. Will a 28" bat give him enough plate coverage? She'd
That would be a much better question to pose to his coach as we are unable to see, analyze, nor coach the player's swing. However, based on his size, a 28" bat is most common and he should be just fine with it.
Tyler
My son is 7 and is 4ft9 78 lbs. and plays coach pitch baseball. The leauge is very competitive fyi. Last year I bought him a TPX omaha 27/17. He hits well but his bat is too small now and he doesnt get good coverage over the plate. I think he could go bigger but the coach suggests a 29 inch or smaller. I would like to find him a bat that is long enough but isn't too heavy to come around. What would you suggest? BensDad
A 29" bat is recommended based on his size. A bat with a weight of 17 to 19 oz. is recommended based on his most previous bat. It's always recommend that a player stick with the same type of bat they have used in the past with the most success. In doing so, the player is much, much more likely to have continued success at the plate. So, if he has success with the Omaha last season, the best recommendation would be to stick with the same model.
Tyler
My nephew weights about 181 and 4'9" inches tall. He is in little league and travels within the city with his team. He is currently in AA level and will be trying out for AAA this Saturday. Even thou he is 9years old he plays with the 10years olds. Im looking for a Louisville Slugger Bat.I saw this bat (TPX Omaha XL:136XL 2013. Would this be a appropriate bat? Sandy
If he is in the 9-12 year old division within Little League, the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL will be illegal because it has a barrel larger than 2 1/4". The version of the Omaha that would be legal for that division is the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha: YB136.
Tyler
What is the difference between the 2012 TPX Omaha XL and the 2013 model? shell
Both the 2013 Lousiville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League bat and the 2012 TPX Omaha: SL126XL Senior League bat are one-piece alloy designs. They both use ST+20 Alloy and will be very high performing bats. Here is a link for further comparison http://www.justbats.com/compare/
Aubrey
Is this bat better than the Easton S3 2 3/4 size? Rex
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League and the Easton S3 will have the same pop. The only difference is the Easton S3 has a more balanced swing weight for faster swing speeds.
Frank
How does this bat compare to the Demarini Vexxum and the Easton XL2? My son is a power hitter. He's 9 y/o and 75 lbs. Looking for something with a big sweet spot. jgunn

Senior League bats are also known as Youth Big Barrel bats. These bats are used by players who play in youth leagues that allow bats with barrels larger than 2 1/4 inches in diameter.
Frank
How does this bat compare to the 2012 Easton S3? gatorman
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL and the 2012 Easton S3 are going to be very similar bats in performance and balance. The biggest difference is that the Omaha is going to be a little more durable based off our customer feedback.
Noah
My son is 10 yrs old 4'9" 98lbs. He is a power hitter with great bat speed. He has been using an Easton S1 28-18oz. but I think he is ready for an upgrade. Would you recommend the Omaha TPX 29 -19oz or bigger? OneDog
Based on his size and hitting style, a 30" 20 oz. model would be the recommended size.
Tyler
Is the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League bat good for power hitting? BatMan
Yes, the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League is a good bat for a power hitter. Power hitters usually prefer a one-piece bat just like the TPX Omaha XL.
Frank
I am looking for a good bat for my 8 yr old son. He is in machine pitch this year. He is 4'5" tall and 91 lbs. The only league requirement is that it has 1.15 on the bat. she
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League bat is a good choice for your son. It is an one-piece full alloy bat. It is made to be durable while performing well. It is very good for the machine pitch leagues. This bat does contain the USSSA 1.15 BPF stamp.

My son is 12 5' 2" and 125 lbs. I'm wondering if I should go with the 30" 20 oz. or 31" 21 oz. Omaha XL SL136XL. Trying to decide to go with -5 or -10? He's using the Easton Surge 30" 20 oz. -10 now and the pop doesn't seem to be there. Will the Omaha have better pop? Thanks. jason
Based on his height and weight we recommend a 31" 21 oz. 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL. It is a very balanced bat with excellent pop.
Kara
My son is 5'4" and 105lbs. What is the recommended bat size and weight? This is his first year in Babe Ruth after using a 31" 19oz. in Little league. beach
You should go with the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League in a 31" still, but use a 21oz. bat.
Noah
Will hitting rubber cage balls damage or take the "pop" out of this bat? Dale24
We recommend avoiding the use of rubber batting cage balls as much as possible. They are much more dense than leather baseballs and could damage or reduce the life of any bat; even the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL.
Mac
My son is 12. He's 5' tall and weighs 85 lbs. He's using a 29" and 19 oz. bat. What do you recommend? He has a nice swing and not much pop. Sully

Kevin
My son is playing 10U travel ball. He is about 4'4" inches tall and 80 lbs. He is small/avg for his age. He was looking at this senior league bat, 28" 18 oz. Is it a good fit? Also, what is the difference between this senior model and the youth model? tom

Brandon
My son is on a 9u travel team. He is small 4'2" and weighs 60 lbs. He has a great swing but is worried the big barrels will be too big for him. Which ones are easiest to get around on? Jay
No need to worry. Just because it's a bigger barrel it won't feel any heavier. The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League is a very light swinging bat and very balanced. It shouldn't be a problem.
Chad M.
My son is 4'11 and weighs 108. He plays travel ball and swings indoors almost all year. What size and what bat do you recommend? Thunder
Your son should be using a 30" bat. The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL is great for contact hitters because of the very balanced feel so it should be a great bat for him.
Noah
What is the difference in the TPX Omaha XL and the regular TPX Omaha, other than size of the barrel? Which one is preferred with them being the same price? Jimmy
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League will have the same swing weight and feel as the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha: SL1365 Senior League. The only difference is the SL1365XL has a 2 3/4" barrel and the SL1365 has a 2 5/8" barrel.
Katie
My son is 10 years old and is 5 ft. 85 lbs. He currently uses an Easton S1 29-19 in the 2 5/8" barrel. He is in his first year of travel and can now use 2 3/4" barrel. I'm looking for a new bat that's not $300. scott

Trying to decide between this Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL & the Easton S3: SL11S310B. We play about half season in 50-60 degree weather before it warms up. My son prefers a balanced bat and is kind of an all around hitter. He is a larger kid for his age. He had a Worth Prodigy that did not last 3 months during winter indoor hitting on pitching machine balls. Can you help push us in either bat's direction? todd in minnesota
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League and the Easton S3: SL11S310B are both very balanced bats. Their one-piece alloy design will feel similar to the Worth Prodigy. Both are very high performing.
Kara
Is the diameter graduation rate from the grip to the barrel the same between the Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL 2 3/4" and the Easton S3 2 3/4"? Or does one get wider closer to the grip? Hard to tell from photo comparisons. todd in minnesota
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL has a 7/8" tapered handle while the Easton S3: SL13S310B has a larger, 29/32" taper. The Omaha is narrower than the S3 near the grip.

Kevin
Is the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL legal in 2013 USSSA 10uaa baseball league? I would hate to buy this bat and find out that a 2 3/4 inch barrel is too big. I read the rules at the USSSA website and it was for 2011 and 2012. I don't know if it will change for 2013. Aj
Yes. The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL features the new USSSA stamp and is legal for play in that league.
Tyler
It's my son's first year of 9 U travel. He's an older 9 year old and turns 10 in July. He's 56.5 inches tall and weighs 75 lbs. I would like to get 2 years out of the TPX Omaha XL. The bat coach recommends 29", but what do you think? Should I step up to the 30" model? The Demon
Based on his height and weight, we recommend a 29" model in the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League bat. Although, he can also go up to a 30" model based on his height and weight which would allow him to get more use out of the bat.

Aubrey
Difference between alloys of Omaha Senior League bat and Omaha Coach Pitch bat? Eddie
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League uses a different alloy than the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: YB136XL Junior Big Barrel. The Junior Big Barrel will have thinner alloy walls that are slightly higher performing than the Senior League's alloy walls, which are designed to withstand higher velocity pitching.
Katie
What would be the best size for a 6 year old that weighs about 56 pounds? edwin
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League bat will be for an older hitter. You should look for a 27" bat length in a Youth bat.
Brandon
For a contact hitter, would you recommend this bat, or the Easton S2? Luke
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League and Easton S2 are both balanced bats, which is great for a contact hitter. The two-piece Easton S2 might work out a little though, because the flex in the bat will help you increase your bat speed.
Noah
Is this bat approved for 12U USSSA? Steven
The 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL Senior League is approved in USSSA.
Kara
I am looking for a big barrel for my son. I am looking at the Omaha SL136XL and the Easton SL13S310B and I can't decide between the two. He is 9 years old and has great contact, but lacks power right now. He is hitting a lot on the ground and I would like to give him some extra pop. Which do you recommend? shawn
The Easton S3 SL13S310B and the 2013 Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL are both going to be very similar bats. They are both one-piece alloy bats and they are both very balanced. You will not see a difference in performance from either bat, so it will come down to personal preference.
Noah

The Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL: SL136XL will be a balanced bat.

Katie

Kelby
I noticed that some of the smaller bats like the 26" and 27" say recommended for 8 and under. Is that true of this bat? Stephen
The models that are recommended for players 8 and under are the Junior Big Barrel models. Those designs have slightly thinner barrel walls and will often not hold up well against pitch speeds around 40+ mph. But this Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL) Senior League bat does not have that same age recommendation, but it is still a balanced model that a younger player could use very well.
Mac
I'm getting a 29" bat for my strong 8 yr old who is playing travel ball. He's hit well with this bat & the DeMarini Voodoo DXVDR (he has a teammate with each) so I think either one will do. Trying to decide if I should go with this one (-10 drop) or DeMarini (-9 drop) since he can handle either. For longer term, which one will last longer and be better: the Omaha because of the bigger barrel or the DeMarini because of the composite/allow construction & being heavier for more power on the ball? Greg
The Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL) and the 2014 DeMarini Voodoo ( DXVDR) both use top of the line alloy materials. They both are very durable. The design of the bat does not effect the durability of the bat. The quality of the materials are more of a factor.
Kara
My son (7 yrs) is 53 lbs. and 51.5" tall. What size bat do you recommend? Finn
Based on his height and weight we recommend a 28" Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL).
Kara
Does this bat come with the graphite that the 2014 Louisville Slugger Assault has? I've heard this bat is the exact same, but it doesn't say anything about graphite. Jake
Neither the Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL) or the 2014 Louisville Slugger Assault (SLAS14-RX) contain graphite. Both bats feature a one-piece all ST+20 Alloy Design with Synthetic Grips.
Gary T.
Is this bat more for a power hitter or a contact hitter? Big-E
The Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL) has a balanced swing weight that is preferred by contact hitters.
Kyle J.
Do you have to break in the Omaha XL and the Vertex? cj
No, both the Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL) and the Vertex are aluminum barrel bats. Therefore, they are ready to go right out of the wrapper!
Justin R.
My son is 6 years old and getting into coach pitch play. I am wondering if the TPX Omaha XL, in a 26", would be a good bat for him to swing and grow into during his years of coach pitch. rbush
The Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL Senior League) is typically used by youth players needing a USSSA certified big barrel bat. The 26" 16 oz. sizing could work for him in his league.
Brandon

My son is 8. He weighs a little over 60 lbs and is approximately 49" tall. I am looking for a big barrel bat for him and was interested in this bat. Can you tell me what the best option for him might be? I don't want a bat that is too heavy for him either. Neil C
Based on his height and weight, we recommend a 28" model in the Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL) Senior League. The Omaha has a balanced swing weight and is a terrific bat for any player.
Jason
Why don't you have the 34" version? Are 2 3/4 34" bats still made? I know about the metal storm bats you have, but are few companies making this type of bat? Ben
The Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL) and most -10 bats are not made in a 34". Most players that use a 34" bat are swinging a -5 or a -3 bat.

What is the difference between the Omaha xl and the Omaha? What does the XL stand for in the name? bobby
The only difference between this Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL (SL136XL) Senior League bat and the (SL136) is the barrel diameter. The XL indicates this bat has the larger, 2 3/4" barrel diameter. The (SL136) offers the 2 5/8" barrel diameter.

Sean
My son weigh about 60 pounds and is about 5 feet 4 or 5 inches tall. What size bat would you recommend? My other son is about 65 pounds and around the same height. Would he need to go up a size? nina
Based on their heights and weights, we would suggest a 30 inch bat for both of them. Unfortunately, the Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL Senior League Baseball Bat (SL136XL) is not available in that size. The closest option we do have in that size would be either the 2014 Louisville Slugger Assault Senior League Baseball Bat (SLAS14-RX) or the 2015 Louisville Slugger Omaha 515 Senior League Baseball Bat (SLO515X).
Patrick
I'm 94 lbs. and 5'. What size bat would I need? smitty9922

Since the 30/20 SL136xl is not available at this time, will it be available in the future? If not, which Louisville Slugger bat is the new model? Ed
The Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL Senior League Baseball Bat (SL136XL) is the 2013 model so the production of it was discontinued in 2014 so we will not be getting any more in. The new 2015 Louisville Slugger Omaha 515 Senior League Baseball Bat (SLO515X) is the most similar current model.
Patrick
My son is currently swinging a 26 inch 16 ounce Combat B4 Portent. We are looking for an alloy bat with a balanced weight and similar swing feel for the few cold weather games we play. Would the Louisville Slugger Omaha fit the bill? BassBlaster
The Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL Senior League Baseball Bat (SL136XL) will have a similar overall feel to the COMBAT B4 Portent XL Senior League Baseball Bat (B4SL210) but in an alloy barrel.
Patrick
My son is 50" tall and weighs 50 lbs. What size bat do you recommend for him? I ask this because I bought him a bat this year and the coach said it was too big for him. Mike
Based on his height and weight, we recommend a 28" Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL Senior League Baseball Bat (SL136XL).
Tessa
My son is 5' and weighs 87 lbs. He wants this bat. What size do you recommend? Karyn

Brandon
I'm 5' and weight 87 lbs. I'm not that strong, how many oz. on this bat should I get? Kj
A 20 oz. Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL Senior League Baseball Bat (SL136XL) would work best for your size.
Brandon
Do you have any suggestions on any big barrel bats that you recommend for a 11 year old that is 5' and weighs 87 lbs? Karyn
The Louisville Slugger TPX Omaha XL Senior League Baseball Bat (SL136XL) has a balanced swing weight and is an excellent option to consider. Based on his height and weight, we recommend a 30" bat. The 2014 Louisville Slugger Assault Senior League Baseball Bat (SLAS14-RX) is a newer version of the Omaha and might be a slightly better option.

About the Brand
In 1842, J. Frederick Hillerich emigrated with his family from Baden-Baden, Germany to the United States. Eight years before, the 1834 Book of Sports had made its debut as the nation's first publication covering baseball. But when he arrived in Baltimore, J. Frederick Hillerich would never have dreamed of the future impact his family would have on America's favorite pastime.
After a short while, the Hillerichs moved to Louisville, where J. Fred started a woodworking shop in 1856. Two of his sons, Adam and John Andrew "Bud" were born in the United States and would later join their father in his business. By 1864 "J.F. Hillerich, Job Turning" was in operation and filled orders for businesses by custom-turning everything from balusters to bedposts.
The firm thrived, and by 1875 the little woodworking shop employed about 20 people. In 1880 Bud Hillerich, who was an amateur baseball player, became an apprentice in his father's shop. Young Bud made his own baseball bats along with bats for several of his teammates.
The debate over the origins of the first bat continues to generate controversy among baseball enthusiasts, but the younger Hillerich was most certainly involved in getting his father's business involved with what would become the company's signature item. According to company legend, the first bat was turned by Bud for Pete "The Old Gladiator" Browning in 1884. Browning was a star on Louisville's professional American Association team - the Eclipse. On a spring afternoon Bud, then seventeen, witnessed Browning break his favorite bat. Bud offered to make a bat for his hero, and Browning accepted. After the young wood shop apprentice lathed a quality stick from white ash, according to the story, Browning got three hits with it in the next game.
Louisville Slugger gloves are worn by more pitchers in Major League Baseball than any other glove.
