When it comes to baseball bats, Easton is royalty. For more than 40 years, Easton has been an industry leader in developing innovative new technologies and outfitting ballplayers with high-performing bats. Today, we take a look at the 2013 Easton S Series and XL Series and compare their differences and why they might be the right bat for you.

Easton S Series:

The Easton S Series is a great bat for contact hitters. It has a balanced swing weight, so it’ll help hitters who have trouble generating their own power to increase their bat speed. There are four designs in the S Series: The S1, S2, S3 and S4.

The S1 is a two-piece bat with a composite handle and barrel and available in BBCOR, Senior League, Youth and Jr. Big Barrel designs. The S2 is a two-piece hybrid with a composite handle and alloy barrel and available in BBCOR, Senior League and Youth designs. The S3 is a one-piece alloy and available in BBCOR, Senior League and Youth designs. The S4 is a one-piece alloy with a 2 ½” barrel diameter and available in BBCOR.

The XL1 is a two-piece bat with a composite barrel and handle and available in BBCOR, Senior League and Youth designs. The XL2 is a two-piece hybrid bat with a composite handle and alloy barrel and available in BBCOR, Senior League and Youth designs.
