Description
Easton Alpha Balanced 13-Inch 240 NTS Slowpitch Softball Bat (ESU3ALB)
The Easton Alpha Balanced ESU3ALB is a two-piece composite model in our 240 NTS slowpitch collection featuring a 13-inch barrel and uncommon half-ounce weights. Rather than adding barrel-end mass, its balanced design targets hitters who prefer a more even swing feel and quick barrel adjustments.
13-Inch Composite Barrel
The 13-inch barrel offers a middle ground between compact 12-inch designs and longer-barrel options from our slowpitch softball bat lineup. Its composite construction is designed for responsive contact, although individual fit should take priority over general performance claims. Our guide to bat compression numbers explains why a single measurement cannot tell you which model fits your swing.
Two-Piece Feel
The two-piece design can influence how impact feedback reaches the hitter's hands. Players switching from a one-piece Alpha or another stiff slowpitch bat may notice a different sensation even if the nominal weight is similar.
Balanced Swing Weighting
Unlike loaded models, this Alpha emphasizes neutral swing weighting. It can suit players who value bat control, line-drive contact and a repeatable path through the hitting zone.
25.5 and 26.5 Ounce Options
The available variants are listed at 34 inches with 25.5- and 26.5-ounce weights. These half-ounce increments give players a specific fitting choice that is easy to miss when comparing whole-ounce models.
