Across 1,959 fitting sessions, 2022–2025, there were 186 cases where a hitter swung two bats of the same length and same scale weight in the same session.View quoted post on X
Ages ranged from 8 to 30, @USSSA to @MLB. Same specs on the bat, different balance point in the hands.
In 32% of those same length/weight pairs, exit velo moved more than 3 mph from one bat to the other.
In 10%, more than 5 mph!
Which bat won? A coin flip — 48% more end-loaded/52% more balanced. The balance point matters. Which way it mattered depended on the hitter.
Test the hitter. Fitting matters.
