Louisville Slugger MLB Prime Maple DJ2 Captain MLB Baseball Bat

An ode to The Captain, the MLB Prime DJ2 baseball bat is fashioned to the same specifications preferred by Hall of Fame shortstop Derek Jeter. Formerly known as the P72, the Maple DJ2 boasts a medium-sized barrel, a longer barrel taper and standard handle thickness – a build comparable to Jeter’s performance bat from high school. The latest C271’s high-gloss black finish is all business, and metallic silver Seamless Decals steal the spotlight when you’re racking up hits.

• Our completely re-engineered Craftsman-Style Cup features a thicker width edge along the end of the barrel, lending added strength and durability to the end of the bat to help reduce chipping and cracking.
• Applied directly under our high-definition topcoat, the iconic center brands and back brands blend into the bat almost as intricately as the grain of the wood itself
• New easy-to-read medallions have been embedded in the knob, clearly show the identifying characteristics of your bat and replacing outdated etching that has been previously used. The medallion indicates the MLB Prime grade of wood, the species and the length, while the bat name is engraved in the surrounding area.
• Gives you a finish you can feel in an incredibly durable top coat that not only drastically increases surface hardness, but gives you a mirror-like finish in high-gloss models, elevating the color and grain definition of the bat.
