The first bat that makes every kid feel like a superstar.
2026 Rawlings Raptor Aluminum Tee Ball Baseball Bat RTB6R12 -12oz
Description
Rawlings built the 2026 Raptor Tee Ball for one mission: turn those first swings into pure joy. This ultra-light –12oz alloy is the perfect intro to real baseball—big 2 1/4" barrel, massive sweet spot, and a bright silver/blue colorway that looks awesome in tiny hands. One-piece aluminum means zero sting, instant “PING,” and durability that survives backyard wars and machine pitching. It’s so light and balanced that even the littlest sluggers can swing it all day without getting tired, yet it still launches the ball off the tee like it’s angry. Parents call it “the magic wand” because the smiles start the second it leaves the wrapper.

2 1/4" Barrel Diameter
Official tee ball size that’s easy to square up every single time.
USA Baseball Tee Ball Certified
Approved stamp for Coach Pitch, T-Ball, and all entry-level leagues.
Key Features
- 100% Lightweight Aerospace-Grade Alloy – Super-thin walls for surprising pop and toughness that laughs at thousands of tee hits
- X-Tended Sweet Spot Design – Extra-long barrel gives tiny hitters way more room to make solid contact and watch the ball fly
- One-Piece Aluminum Construction – No knobs, no connectors, just pure, sting-free feedback and that classic “ding” kids love
- Ultra-Light –12oz Swing Weight – Feels like a toy but hits like a real bat—perfect for building confidence fast
Who This Bat Is Built For
The 4–7-year-old who’s ready to graduate from plastic and start crushing real baseballs. The kid who lives for tee work, machine pitch, and backyard wiffle ball tournaments. Parents who want one bat that lasts multiple seasons (and multiple kids) without breaking the bank. One swing and the Raptor becomes “MY bat” in permanent marker—because nothing beats watching your little one’s eyes light up when the ball actually jumps off the barrel.
Best for:
- Little League and USABat-league players
- Players sized for a -12 drop — lighter drops favor bat speed, heavier drops favor power

FAQ
Is this bat legal for my league?
It carries the USA Baseball certification stamp — the standard used by Little League, Cal Ripken, Babe Ruth, PONY, AABC and other USABat leagues. 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.
