Bat Benefits

Mizuno builds this fungo bat with a poplar wood core that is covered with a maple shell. The poplar wood core should make the bat really lightweight and easy to swing. And the maple shell should deliver that solid and stiff feel at contact!

Fungos are going to be extremely popular for use by baseball coaches because they are going to be built much lighter than a regular baseball bat. As well, they are a little longer in length than regular bats. The combination of the lightweight feel plus extra length is great for coaches! The lightweight feel ensures that coaches won't tire out easily and the extra length ensures that they have some more leverage when swinging the bat (and can still put a charge into a baseball).

This 37-inch model of bat will be really popular for hitting to outfielders, however, it can definitely handle hitting to infielders too!
