2023 Easton Hype Comp -3 BBCOR Baseball Bat With the 2023 Easton Hype Comp -3 BBCOR bat, we've meticulously engineered every feature to deliver explosive performance at the plate. From the knob to the end-cap, this bat was built to give you the highest-performing composite bat you'll find anywhere. The Hype Comp is built with end-to-end Thermo Composite Technology, which creates a massive sweet spot with the lightest material possible, maximizing both your bat speed and explosiveness on contact.
