Questions and Answers

Have a question about the Mizuno Generation -13 Youth Baseball Bat: YB17GEN13? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

Will this bat be approved for 2018 as well as this year? I noticed the DeMarini Voodoo minus-13 won't be, according to your website. Bob
Starting in 2018 all youth bats will have to feature the new USABat stamp. These bats will not start coming out until sometime mid-2017. All bats purchased currently would not be allowed for competitive play in 2018.
Cameron
I do not see this bat listed on the Little League 2016/2017 list of approved 2 1/4 bats (updated on 12/5/16). Bat description states approved for Little League play though. Any help? BLadd25
This 2017 Mizuno Generation -13 Youth Baseball Bat (YB17GEN13) will feature a 2 1/4" barrel diameter and USSSA 1.15 BPF certification. In regard to featuring the necessary requirements for most bats to be included for use in the Majors Division of Little League, this bat should be ready to go. However, if it was not included on that list, I may recommend reaching out to Little League and inquiring why the bat was not included on that list of approved bats.

What would be the right size for my 4'7", 65 lb. 11 year old with a strong swing? Adrienne
Based on your sons height and weight we would recommend a 29"/16 ounce 2017 Mizuno Generation -13 Youth Baseball Bat (YB17GEN13).
Carter
How long is the barrel? SS
That depends on the length of the bat. For a 32" model, the barrel length measured at just over 10".
Kyle J.
My son is about 4'10" and 85 pounds. He has been using a 2 5/8" drop 10 Rawlings, but we need to get a 2 1/4" for a fall league. Should we go with a 32 in/19 oz or 31 in/18oz? I don't see any reviews for this bat, but it was on the top 6 list in a Just Bats blog post. Feedback would be great. RT
Based on your player's height and weight, and given those two sizes, I would recommend the 31" 18 ounce 2017 Mizuno Generation -13 Youth Baseball Bat: YB17GEN13.
Logan
If my son weighs 125 lbs and stands 5'2", what would be a good bat size? He is 12 years old. Joe
We would recommend getting the 2017 Mizuno Generation -13 Youth Baseball Bat: YB17GEN13 in a 31 inch model based on his height and weight. For a 12 year old it would be best to swing a -10 model though.
Cameron
According to new bat rules, this bat will not be legal in little league for 2018. Is that correct Lance
The 2017 Mizuno Generation -13 Youth Baseball Bat: YB17GEN13 will not be legal for Little League in 2018 as this bat will not feature the new USABat stamp. The news bats will have thicker barrel walls compared to the current USSSA BPF 1.15 stamped models like the 2017 Mizuno Generation -13 Youth Baseball Bat: YB17GEN13.
Cameron
Will it be legal for other Little League associations in 2018? joel mole
This 2017 Mizuno Generation -13 Youth Baseball Bat (YB17GEN13) will not feature the USABat certification and therefore will not be allowed for use in Little League, Babe Ruth, Pony or Dixie Baseball in 2018.
