Welcome to SportsRetort.com - Information on Baseball bats

Back in the 1920s and '30s, Paul and Lloyd Waner of the Pittsburgh Pirates dominated the National League like no brothers before or since, piling up batting titles and hitting records galore. Paul was dubbed "Big Poison"; his younger brother, "Little Poison." While we don't claim to have produced a pair of future Hall-of-Famers by any means, we do feel our two boys have earned their Little League monickers--and now they have the bats to prove it. Just look on the barrel of their personalized Louisville Sluggers: Alex "Big Poison"; Trevor "Little Poison."

We figure top-notch hitters deserve top-notch lumber, and is there any bat out there of better quality than the Louisville Slugger from Hillerich & Bradsby Co., Louisville, Ky.? Simply go to the company's website (www.sluggergifts.com) and you'll be amazed at the breadth and depth of selections. Length, weight, wood grain, color ... it's all up to you, as is, of course, the letters and typeface that will be burned into the barrel. Ranging in price from $49$82, a personalized Louisville Slugger is the perfect gift for the would be batting champion in your family.
