2019 Easton USA Bats | New Little League World Series Bats

March 21, 2019 | @BatDigest

Little League World Series bats for 2018 are much different than those of the 2017 Series. The 2018 versions have much less trampoline effect due to a new USA Bat Standard (which restricts performance by upwards of 10 to 20%). With that said, the 2019 Easton USA bats are serious upgrades from the first iteration of the 2018 USA Bat Standard. These are the main bats you’ll see in the 2018 Little League World Series.

Through the first few games, LLWS home runs in 2018 measure out about once ever 3 games (0.333). In 2017 LLWS HR happened about 1.5 times per game. Compare this to the MLB in 2018 which is pacing around 1.15 and the CWS which had about 1.23.

Did they use USA Bats in 2018?

In 2018, the Little Leauge world series used 2017 USSSA legal bats but they were painted like the new USA Bats for 2018. This year, 2018, will be the first year they use the actual USA Bat standard in the games. And they have all new designs too.

When To Buy

The 2019 Easton USA bats are available starting no earlier than September of 2018. However, some (like the Ghost X Evo) aren’t available to the public until November. (See what is available now).

Most people who bought USA Bats super early in 2017 (for the 2018 season) ended up choosing incorrectly.

Caution: Although the excitement around new bats is always there, we suggest waiting a few weeks (and months) if you can. By November we should know much more in terms of bat performance, feedback and proper fit.

In terms of getting the best deal you’ll need to wait until the summer of 2019 before you see any legitimate discounts. Easton’s selling agreements require a certain price to be held for a certain amount of time. This process of a guaranteed price helps the bat world go around as big vendors spend millions and millions of dollars on bulk bat purchases.
