Baseball Bats | Louisville Slugger
By Bat Digest | Last Updated December 14, 2020
The Louisville Slugger LXT 2021 is a two-piece composite bat with a big barrel and top-grade performance reviews. The fastpitch bat has dominated the space and, for 2021, comes in a drop 8 through drop 11. They upgraded the 2021 end cap as well as a new grip. Otherwise, it’s about the same bat—which is an excellent thing.
Jump to full review.Jump to the full review.Our hitters like the semi-flexible handle, big barrel, and top-end performance. Although slappers could use it, it’s much more a middle power and base hitters bat. They thought the Slugger LXT for 2021 swung heavier than a bat like the CF but noticeably lighter than a bat like the Easton Ghost Advanced.

The Louisville Slugger LXT 2021 is for middle power and base hitters types at all sport levels. The drop 8 and 9 serve the big-hitting high school and collegiate players well. The drop 10 and 11 are made for those who still need bat speed help but want at least a bit of gumption in their bats. Exit speeds are as good as they can get in the 1.20 ASA fastpitch approved bat world. Expect to get and pay the most for the 2021 LXT.
The drop 8 and 9 Slugger LXT 2021 versions are for big hitters like a semi-flexible feel on a big barrel. Although not its sweet spot, the bigger versions of the LXT serve that 3/4 hitter well. The drop 10 and 11 are pure gold for the improving new comp player to the elite-level high school base hitter. Those sizes can work as a slapper bat. The ideal LXT bat user is from the base hitting type to the middle power girl who wants one of the best feels in the business.
