How is Yellow Birch different from Ash or Maple?
Our raw material, Québec's Yellow Birch, possesses extraordinary physical characteristics. Based on game experience and laboratory testing, B45 bats perform consistently better than bats made from either maple or ash. We like to say it's the best of both worlds. Hard like maple bats and as flexible as ash bats, B45 yellow birch bats have a significantly lower breakage rate enhancing hitting performance, lowering overall cost, and adding a measure of safety to the game.
Can I pick up my bats, rather than paying to have them shipped?
Yes. Our factory in Québec City, Que. is open from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm and from 1:00 pm to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Call us at (418) 800-1145 to arrange pickup.
Do you sponsor teams, leagues or tournaments?
We have a very limited marketing/sponsorship budget, and with it, we try to support baseball organizations by providing products. Send us your sponsorship requests at info@b45baseball.com.
Do you make promotional items for businesses or events?
Yes, we can customize regular-size or miniature trophy bats to be given as promotional items, corporate gifts or even trophies and awards.
