 Easton Rival End-Loaded Slowpitch Bat USA/USSSA (2026)
| | ROY'S RATING: 3 stars
The Easton Rival Slowpitch Softball Bat opens with a build designed for players who want the barrel to feel present, composed, and ready from the first swing. Early reps, cage work, and game-speed swings all ask the same question: does the bat stay connected when the tempo rises? At the center of the design is ALX100 Alloy, lightweight alloy construction built for consistent slowpitch barrel response. It is backed by 12" Barrel, slowpitch barrel length built for broad hitting coverage. The Rival keeps its feel consistent through the rest of the build as the handle, barrel, and grip work together toward a more controlled swing path and a steadier contact experience. From early work to game-speed swings, Easton's Rival Slowpitch Softball Bat is built to keep the barrel feeling ready without losing the details that make each cut feel connected.

1-piece alloy
High performance and lightweight ALX100TM alloy construction

USSSA has used a 1.20 BPF standard in its softball programs for 15 years. The BPF standard was developed by NYU Physics Professor Dr. Richard A. Brandt over 15 years ago. The BPF standard is based on fundamental laws of physics that allow Dr. Brandt's testing lab to measure the relative performance of bats to be used in USSSA play.
