Rawlings' 5150 Alloy Senior League Bat Is Red Hot

Opposing pitchers will be seeing red when you crank one with your new Rawlings 5150 alloy bat.

Rawlings' 5150 Alloy Senior League Bat (model number SL105) features superior durability and trampoline effect, along with an electric red color.

Rawlings' 5150 alloy, formulated for strength and flex, is molded into a 2-5/8” barrel with a -10 drop to create the senior league bat. The bat has a one-piece frame and a premium synthetic leather grip. The manufacturing process makes 5150 bats consistently hotter than previous aluminum bats.

It is available in four lengths, ranging from 27” to 30”.

This bat is approved for use in USSSA, Babe Ruth, Pony League, AABC, Dixie League, BPA, Dizzy Dean and all other associations that allow 2-5/8" barrels with 1.15 BPF with ABI standard.

It has a 1-year warranty that covers breakage or cracking resulting from normal use. The warranty does not cover bats that have been used in commercial batting cages.

Another great bat in the 5150 alloy series is the BBCOR-approved high school/collegiate bat with a -3 drop (model number BB5150).

• NOCSAE® baseball batting helmet standards involve tests of baseballs fired from a cannon at 60 mph at a distance of 2 ft, which is roughly equivalent to an impact resulting from a pitch speed of 68 mph at a distance of 60 ft.

• The Rawlings Performance Rating™ System is based on pitch speeds at a distance of 60 ft.

• NOCSAE® standards require that a batting helmet withstand all test impacts at an established peak severity index (SI). Helmets also must survive all test protocols substantially intact and ready for use.

• The NOCSAE® standard is aimed at reducing the risk of skull fractures. The standard has not been correlated with reducing the risk of concussions from such impacts.

WARNING: Severe head or neck injury, including paralysis or death may occur to you despite using this helmet. No helmet can prevent all head injuries or any neck injuries a player might receive while participating in baseball or softball.

Rawlings Improves Its 5150 BBCOR Bat

When it comes to alloy bats, Rawlings says it best—“BBCOR bats deliver when hitters need it most: every at bat, every time.”

Rawlings' 5150 Alloy BBCOR bat (model number BB5150) leads that charge. The introduction of the Comp-Lite end cap has given it greater balance than previous models.

The end cap lowers the moment of inertia (MOI) to maximize swing speed.

This bat also features Precision-Optimized Performance™ barrel technology (pOp™). This technology isolates the weight of the bat in a small region of the barrel for better trampoline effect and barrel flex.

The 1-piece 5150 frame is Rawlings' most durable and highest-performing alloy. Rawlings developed its own metal-forming process to create its 5150 BBCOR bats. This process allows for precise wall thickness, resulting in maximum pop.

Made for the high school and college levels, this bat is 0.50 BBCOR certified.

Look for it in lengths ranging from 30” to 34”, all with a -3 drop.

A 1 year warranty is available.
