Easton Hype Fire -5 USSSA Baseball Bat is built for youth players who want a powerful composite barrel, balanced control, and a connected feel as swing speed increases. Featuring a 2 3/4-inch barrel and -5 length-to-weight ratio, this Hype Fire model combines Easton performance technologies in a two-piece construction designed for competitive youth and travel baseball.
At the center of the bat is the TCT Barrel, a high-performing composite barrel engineered to widen the sweet spot and maintain consistent barrel response through contact. The barrel is paired with ConneXion Max, an elastomer connection designed to keep the two-piece construction feeling smooth while helping manage unwanted feedback between the barrel and handle.
