A sleek, understated look is ever-appropriate for Christian Yelich's MLB Prime Signature Series CY22, the perfect embodiment of one of baseball's biggest stars. A high-gloss black finish and gold Seamless Decals come together in a look built for the bright lights. A medium-barrel design with a traditional, slight knob taper and a short barrel-to-handle taper gives you a perfectly weighted end-loaded feel.
The MLB Prime Signature Series lineup offers all players a chance to step up to the plate with bats big league stars swing. Through extensive conversations and collaboration with our MLB All-Stars and Most Valuable Players, the Louisville Slugger product team has developed a line of MLB Prime bats built to exact player specifications. These models, featuring the same extraordinary components of all MLB Prime bats, bring the bright lights to any ball field. From knob to cup, the features on MLB Prime bats are unmatched – something the best players in the world recognize. Each of our Signature Series and MLB Prime bats feature an easy-to-read knob medallion embedded in the knob that indicates the MLB Prime grade of wood, the species and the length, with the bat name and production date engraved in the surrounding area. These bats also feature a Craftsman-Style Cup, created specifically to curb breakage and maintain hardness on contact. To give these bats an unparalleled look and feel, all MLB Prime models are coated with our EXOPRO finish, which creates a beautiful mirror-like appearance and unmatched level of hardness. Seamless Decals on the center, end and back brands blend into the bat almost as intricately as the grain itself. All in all, MLB Prime bats are the finest Louisville Slugger bats created in over a century of craftsmanship. This is MLB Prime. This is Louisville Slugger.
CHRISTIAN'S BAT SPECS
Christian Yelich's CY22 Signature Series bat is fashioned after the S318 turning model: a medium-barrel design with a traditional, slight knob taper and a short barrel-to-handle taper gives you a perfectly weighted end-loaded feel. Christian's gamer is designed with a high-gloss black finish and gold Seamless Decals.
It is a '4' (Slightly End Loaded) on the Swing Weight Scale.
MLB Ink Dot: The Ink Dot is the stamp of the highest quality wood bat. Only ink-dotted bats that meet slope-of-grain are approved for play in Major League Baseball. Every Maple and Birch Louisville Slugger PRIME bat carries this stamp of approval.
Product Features
- EXOPRO: Gives you a finish you can feel in an incredibly durable top coat that not only drastically increases surface hardness, but gives you a mirror-like finish in high-gloss models, elevating the color and grain definition of the bat.
- Knob Medallion: Easy-to-read medallions have been embedded in the knob, clearly show the identifying characteristics of your bat and replacing outdated etching that has been previously used. The medallion indicates the MLB Prime grade of wood, the species and the length, while the bat name is engraved in the surrounding area.
- Seamless Decals: Louisville Slugger’s exclusive Seamless Decals are applied directly under the top coat, giving MLB Prime bats a pristine look. All MLB Prime models feature branding that blends into the bat almost as intricately as the grain of the wood itself – without added stress from pressure and heat. Thanks to this innovative technology, MLB Prime bats continue to shine after countless trips to the plate.
- Craftsman-Style Cup: Our completely re-engineered Craftsman-Style Cup features a thicker width edge along the end of the barrel, lending added strength and durability to the end of the bat to help reduce chipping and cracking.
