The first video was cool, but my first reaction was meh, aluminum bat.

The second was way more impressive. No ping, so not aluminum, but 500 off a wood bat? The sound wasn't really right for wood either, some sort of composite?

Rice supposedly hit at least one around 450 in HS.

Good story and videos of Blaze. He can really crush the ball. Thats quite the compliment from Pujols.

100% composite bat, looks like a Easton Mako XL. A star ten year old can hit the ball 250 feet plus with these Composite bats. These bats are no longer being used in Little League and other charted organizations. The new USA bat standards make all aluminum bats preform like wood. A 12 year old Little League player during the US regional championship hit a home run 375 feet with a full Composite bat. Not impressed

I still say meh. Let him hit a big league slider that far, then we'll talk.

People said all this about Bryce Harper too. He won an MVP.

bump as he just signed a contract with the Boston Red Sox.
I could see him hitting homers over the Green Monster.

At the rate MLB and the player’s union are going there won’t be a league by the time he is out of high school.
