Wood Bat Clearance Sale
By Wayne | July 26, 2010
SiriusSportsOnline.com will have wood bat clearance sale. Starting Tuesday July 27 we will be reducing the price on all wood bats that are in stock. We will only honor the prices for in stock items only. Once they are sold out we will not order them for anyone unless they want to pay the full price. So, if you or someone you know are in the market for a wood bat take advantage of these low prices.
All Mizuno, Nokona, DeMarini, Brett Bros &Verdero will be reduced.
Most wood bats break . So here is an opportunity to have that extra bat in your bag at a great price. A lot of players only buy one bat than when theirs break in a game they want to borrow a teammates. Not cool. I wouldn’t loan mine out. If the bat is going to break I want to be the one that breaks it.
If you are training either in a facility or outdoors with your coach it is best to use a wood bat. It gives you instant feedback on where you hit the ball on the bat. Wood bats are not forgiving like composite or alloy bats. They have a smaller sweet spot which when hit properly the player will see the ball travel harder & further similar to that of a ball hit with a composite or alloy bat. If the player does not hit the sweet spot than the results will be drastically different than when hit in the same spot on the other types of bats. So when the player doesn’t hit the sweet spot – the bat sucks! When they do hit the sweet spot it is the best bat they ever had.

Composite Bats Banned By NFHS
By Wayne | July 21, 2010
On July 7 the NFHS has banned composite baseball bats indefinitely after testing showed they exceed its performance standard. While many of the composite bats adhere to the regulations when they are manufactured, they get more productive with age.
This has been no secret over the years. Most customers purchased the bat knowing that after a break-in period the bat will perform better through regular use. Why not? The idea of the game is to win and if you have talent to hit the ball these composite bats will give you an edge by expanding the “sweet spot” which allows batters to get a better hit then they would have if they have used a wood or aluminum bat which has a smaller “sweet spot”.
Easton Sports markets their premium baseball equipment under the Stealth label. The company slogan “ Play with It. Or Against It.” It made sense. While you’re on the field you might as well use the best equipment that is available to give you an advantage.
I certainly don’t say that Easton make the best bat. In fact the DeMarini Voodoo & CF4 sold better at SiriusSportsOnline.com.
So, what’s going to happen. At this point the manufacturers are appealing the decision & asking the NFHS to rescind their decision. If the appeal is not granted then manufacturers have a plan in place to handle the exchanges with the customers that have purchased the composite bats. They have also suspended all shipments of their current composite bat inventory.
For the player that does not want to wait and be without a bat during play time I suggest buying a VooDoo or an Anderson bat. You can visit our website or call 866-333-7764.

Sirius Sports Has Moved To South Carolina
By Wayne | July 10, 2010
I would like to let everyone know that Sirius Sports has moved to South Carolina. Up until a June 1 we were planning to move into the warehouse located behind our Route 37 store. We were waiting for the current tenant to move out but new construction & permit delays kept pushing things back for them and they still remain in the building. As you know the economy continues to have serious effects on so many which has impacted the store. I was continuing to try to cut overhead costs and keep the store local but after speaking with several business owners and bankers they all suggested that I move the business to where I live.
I want to say thank you to all of the customers that have supported Sirius Sports for our 8 years in Toms River. I have met so many nice people and made several good friends. I also met some interesting people as well. Maybe if I write a book I can tell you about them. In the meantime Diane & I share some good stories. Diane is not my wife although she yelled at me as much as my own does. While I thought Diane was my right hand, most customers thought I was Diane’s. I’m not sure you will ever go into a store and see so many customers go up to the salesperson to kiss & hug them as much as our customers did with Diane. With those kind of relationships there is no surprise why Sirius Sports always did well.
Sirius Sports will now focus solely on our website SiriusSportsOnline.com. Over the next several months we will eliminate products, add new ones, lower prices on many and create discounts for our teams and leagues. Shipping to NJ is 2 days for UPS Ground.
