Has anyone come across Louisville Slugger bats that have a letter after the model number? Normally, the bats are labeled as "C271" or "T141," etc, but recently I saw a "I13L" model with a Major League player's name and team on the front of the barrel as well as the MLB and TPX logo on the back. Is this a minor league cull or something? Thanks!

Ron,

If you look on page 30 of the book BATS by Vince Malta, Mike Specht (who is a pretty regular forum contributor now), Ronald Fox, and Bill Riddell, you will find all the information you need on this. "L" after the model number designates a large knob. "S" after the model number designates "a smaller than usual knob."

Hope that helps.
