Its longer, straighter barrel profile is for hitters who like a direct connection to the barrel and do not need the softer feel of a two-piece bat. In practical terms, the player should feel the difference in the first few swings if the profile is a good match.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow It Swings\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe -8 is for stronger, more advanced hitters. It can feel powerful in capable hands, but it asks for enough strength to keep the barrel on time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eContact Feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe one-piece construction keeps the response direct. There is less isolation between the hands and barrel, which makes barrel control and timing especially important.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBest Hitter Match\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the profile above matches the hitter, this bat deserves consideration.
