From the Manufacturer: About Us

Franklin Sports, a Stoughton, Massachusetts-based sporting goods brand, was founded in 1946 by Irving Franklin. The company is proud of its partnerships with major professional sports leagues, including Major League Baseball, Major League Soccer, the National Basketball Association, the National Football League, the National Hockey League, USA Pickleball, Pro Volleyball Federation, and Hasbro's Nerf brand, which includes youth participation programs.

Franklin Sports is a multigenerational, family-owned business with a rich history and a trusted reputation as a quality sporting goods brand, serving athletes from the recreational level to the professional ranks. The company's mission is to bring sports to life for athletes of all ages, driven by Franklin's passion to get people moving, playing, and competing.

One of the products in the Franklin Sports line is the YOUTH BASEBALL BAT: The Heist aluminum youth bat. Designed for baseball players aged 8-12, the Heist is perfect for adding some pop to their swing as they practice their hitting skills and develop their game.

The Heist 900 is crafted with a LIGHTWEIGHT + BALANCED design, featuring a drop-9 (-9) length-to-weight ratio for quick bat speed and an evenly balanced weight distribution to encourage level swings through the zone.

These youth bats are designed with a BIG BARREL, measuring 2 5/8" in diameter, to provide an extra-large sweet spot for increased contact and power. This helps kids practice their bat-to-ball skills and improve their overall performance.

Each Heist bat is constructed with a one-piece ALUMINUM ALLOY, designed for use with official-size baseballs to provide durable, premium performance season after season.

Importantly, the Heist bat has been RIGOROUSLY TESTED and is USA BASEBALL APPROVED, meeting all the necessary standards for league play.
