Why a Lizard Skins grip?

The grip that comes on a new bat is usually the cheapest part of it — a thin synthetic wrap picked for cost, not feel. It gets slick when your hands sweat, packs down flat in a few weeks, and does nothing about the sting on a mishit. Swapping it for a Lizard Skins DSP Ultra is the biggest upgrade you can make to a bat for under $25, and it’s why you’ll see them on bats from Little League through the big leagues.

It stays tacky, wet or dry

DSP stands for Durable Soft Polymer. It has a slightly tacky surface, an oval pattern and multi-directional ridges that hold your hands in place through the swing whether it’s a humid July doubleheader or a wet April morning. Because the bat isn’t sliding, hitters stop death-gripping the handle — looser hands, quicker bat.

It takes the sting out

The polymer absorbs vibration on off-barrel contact instead of sending it into your hands. The thicker the grip, the more it dampens: 1.8 mm is the most cushion, 1.1 mm is the all-around favorite and our best seller, and 0.5 mm is the pro choice for wood bats when you want to feel everything.

It lasts

The reformulated DSP holds its texture season after season, and the premium adhesive keeps it locked to the handle instead of creeping or unraveling like a worn stock wrap. Every roll is 990 mm / 39 in with pre-cut ends and a finishing strip, and it fits wood, composite or aluminum.

It looks like your bat

80+ colorways — solids, camo, Outburst, patriotic, MLB team colors. Match your uniform or make your bat impossible to mix up in the dugout.

Five-minute install

On-grip markings show exactly where to start and stop. Peel the old grip, wrap the new one, tape the finish — no tools. Watch the install video.

CheapBats.com was the very first Lizard Skins dealer — our founder met theirs at a trade show, tried the grip, and we’ve carried it ever since. We still think it’s the best grip on the market.

2026 Rawlings Clout Ai Aluminum USSSA Baseball Bat RUT6C5 -5oz

Description

Rawlings took their toughest Red Alloy+ and let generative AI loose on it—analyzing thousands of swings to sculpt the 2026 Clout AI –5oz into a one-piece monster that's equal parts smart and savage. Every 1/8-inch of the barrel? Precision-tuned for max trampoline, from the sweet spot to the end cap, so even your off-barrel bombs carry like lasers. That classic alloy "CRACK" hits like thunder, the tuned handle stiffness sends zero energy to waste, and the bold yellow-and-blue finish? It's the visual cue that says "clear the decks—here comes heat." No break-in. Just grip it, rip it, and watch travel ball fences beg for mercy.

Grab the bat that's not just built for power, but built by power. Swing the Clout AI –5oz, and start stacking clout like it's your job.

This bat is part of the Clout line; shop the rest of our Rawlings USSSA baseball bats, everything on the Rawlings baseball bats page, or compare across brands — see all USSSA baseball bats.

RevGrip Premium Handle

Ultra-tacky, cushioned taper that locks in your bottom hand, kills vibration, and feels like it was molded to your swing.

Stamped and sealed for all USSSA, ISA, and NSA tournaments—no questions, all dominance.

Key Features

Who This Bat Is Built For

The advanced travel ball slugger who's outgrown everything else in the duffel—the 13U–14U powerhouse prepping for BBCOR without dropping a step. If you're the guy who lives for inside-out heaters and clearing the left-field trees on pull shots, this –5oz end-loader rewards your strength with distance that turns scouts' heads. Contact purists? It forgives enough to keep your average fat. One BP session with the Clout AI and you'll trade in the old stick for good—because why swing average when you can swing engineered?

Best for:

  • Travel-ball and USSSA-league players swinging the 1.15 BPF standard
  • Players sized for a -5 drop — lighter drops favor bat speed, heavier drops favor power

FAQ

Is this bat legal for my league?

It carries the USSSA 1.15 BPF certification stamp — legal in USSSA-sanctioned travel ball and other leagues that follow the USSSA standard. Always confirm this model against your league's current approved-bat list before game day.

What size should I get?

Size for bat speed first — a bat you can swing quickly beats a heavier one you drag through the zone. If you're between sizes, most players do better with the shorter/lighter option.

Is it covered by a warranty?

Yes — a full 1 year Rawlings manufacturer warranty against breakage and defects, honored through us as an authorized dealer.
