Unless you’re playing high school ball or are on a company softball team drinking Bud Light and slowly losing your hand-eye coordination, you probably prefer the crack of the ball off a wooden bat as opposed to the aluminum “ting” of a metal slugger. We’ve seen enough MLB games to know that broken bats could be seriously dangerous though (especially when they land at Roger Clemens’ feet). Since we aren’t taking home an A-Rod size paycheck when we’re playing a game, we’ll take our precautions with either the Brooklyn Smasher or Brooklyn Crusher. Since they are molded out of heavy-grade polypropylene, not matter what you’re hitting these bats won’t break. They won’t rot or splinter either and won’t make a “ping” each time you’re up like you just ripped one off a tee.
