As a life-long Louisville resident, I hate to see this. But.....things change and things move on. At least Wilson will be keeping the brand and the bat museum and manufacture of the H&B wooden bats will remain in Louisville. The musuem hosts 250K people every year or thereabouts and it's a fantastic place and iconic site with the 100+ foot tall bat outside. It's across the street from the Muhammad Ali museum....hopefully he doesn't sell out to Wilson too.......

You dig yourself a big enough hole, you don't come out of it...I'm not exactly thrilled with what happened but we didn't have much choice and yes, 70 million isn't much but it's very generous of Wilson considering what our alternative would have been. Hillerich & Bradsby will still be making the Louisville Slugger. Hopefully we will continue to do so for many years to come.
