Quality
Maple Baseball Bats

Maple baseball bats are one of the preferred bats in the Major Leagues. Since only wood bats are allowed in the majors, it is important to find good quality models.



The most popular wood is Northern White Ash. Rock Maple has become more popular, because it is very durable.

Quality maple bats are made from wood trunks that have straight grains. Manufacturers that use selected maple wood, will state that feature in the product description. The price will be a little higher, but the bat should be more durable and might provide more pop. The price for a good maple model is about $90.

Maple is a dense timber with a harder surface than ash. Maple is heavier than ash, which makes it difficult to make lightweight large barrel bats.



Aluminum baseball bats are usually preferred in the amateur leagues, because they are lighter and last longer. The hitter can create more speed with a lighter bat and get more pop. Aluminum bats are also more durable.
