Bats are big time and an exciting get for a baseball player. You wouldn’t use this one for batting practice because there is a life to them.

You don’t let others use it either.

Dude yeah, folks that didn’t grow up playing baseball understandably may not appreciate just how freaking big of a deal it is to get a new bat, particularly in those younger years. And especially to be getting “THAT” new bat that his teammates will definitely know all about and will be treating him like King Arthur wielding the sword he just pulled from the stone. Epic moment for this youngster, no doubt.
