🎈 About tee ball bats
Tee ball is all about fun and first swings — honestly, there's no wrong choice here, so we don't put a score on it. At this level a bat just needs to be light, the right length, and (usually) USA-stamped. Grab a fun color, get the size right, and let them rip.
- Size first: most 4–7 year olds swing a 24–26" bat best — have them hold it out straight; if it droops, size down.
- Go light: a big drop (−11 to −13) keeps it easy and fast to swing.
- Check the stamp: most leagues want a USA Baseball (USABat) mark — this one has it.
- Don't overthink the price: they'll grow out of it in a season, so a fun, affordable bat is perfect.
Our Review
Mizuno's 2027 Finch tee-ball bat (340694) is built around the beginner's usual problem — the bat is too heavy for the kid holding it. At -13 in MZ-1300 alloy, the 24" version weighs 11 ounces. It's one-piece, 2 1/4" barrel, with a soft Speed-Helix grip and the blue-and-white Finch Collection paint. Sizes: 24"/11oz, 25"/12oz, 26"/13oz. 1-year Mizuno warranty. As with every tee-ball bat on BatReviews this is an informational listing, not a scored review. Check your league's tee-ball bat rule before buying — most players start on the 24" or 25".
