Louisville Slugger one X

A post from another board:


Just a heads up, but we were at a Big 10 University's Hitting facility yesterday that is backed by Louisville, and I got to go through the Bat grave yard as they would call it too LOL! There were about 7 of the OneX bats that had snapped in half at the connector piece, and that was just one Industrial garbage can worth out of 3. The rest were the first year Xeno (Black), with only 1 or 2 of the new Xeno (Blue and White). From talking to the players and head coach, it looks like the durability was fixed with the new Xeno as has been said. Not so sure with the OneX

DD won a Xeno in December in a 6 week hitting clinic contest. Took it to Ft Lauderdale Jan 3 tournament and the white paint just exploded off the barrel. Before sending it back the fibers had begun to stick out. LS replaced it quickly and the second one didn't last one session in batting cage with live pitching before showing a crack running length wise the bat from one end of the Xeno label to the other. You can see cracks on both sides of the disc area too. Both bats were 33/25 -8. Called LS to send second one back and guy said he would send her a OneX as a free substitute if we wanted. He also said that a new batch of Xeno had just come in. DW chose to get another Xeno. SMH
