BTL Staff Review

The Hype Fire -5 is a great fit for an older, stronger USA hitter preparing for BBCOR. It has a balanced feel for a -5, giving the player more weight behind the ball without making the barrel difficult to control. This is a hot bat with plenty of pop, and we like it for gap and middle-of-the-order hitters who want to drive the ball.
