Bat Benefits
Fungo baseball bats are a common item to find in a dugout and when it comes time to hit some fielding practice coaches always use them. However, few folks understand the true benefit of using a fungo bat.
Long ago it was discovered that hitting fielding practice with a regular-sized baseball bat can get tiring. Within a given session, a coach could take anywhere between 50-100 swings. To spell coaches from exerting too much energy during the pre-game routine, the fungo bat was invented. A fungo is designed to be lighter than a regular baseball bat (usually 5-10 ounces lighter than a typical adult bat) which will make swinging it much less of a chore. As well, most of the bat’s weight will be placed into the barrel (giving a fungo its distinct skinny handle and bigger barrel design). And it will usually be a little bit longer than a regular bat. When the factors of the (1) lighter weight (2) placement of the weight in the barrel and (3) extra length all work together within a fungo; a coach can create some decent torque and hit baseballs at high velocities without expending too much energy.
The S345 features a moderately sized barrel and a little shorter 35″ length. Due to those features, it will be lightweight and extremely easy to handle. If you’re buying for a coach and don’t know how he or she wants the bat to feel, then you better get them an S345. Any coach can swing this bat and place the ball all over the field with precision.
