    Bat an extension of the forearm

    This is my 14 year old DD, about a 1/2 frame after contact. She is a little more pinched with her back elbow and a slightly more narrow stance, but it looks kinda similar.

    bat speed

    Cleats for pitcher

    Of course I got the HOT PINK! ...But then I painted them RAINBOW!!! NO, I got the maroon which is a dark maroon (almost Brown). They look and feel great.
