Short Porch DDT Blackout David Ireland Signature 12.5" End Loaded SSUSA Senior Softball Bat

Some players adjust to the game. David Ireland makes the game adjust to him.

The Short Porch DDT Blackout David Ireland Signature Senior Slowpitch Bat is a 2-piece Kevlar powerhouse built for players who step in with a plan and swing with bad intentions. Designed with a 12.5-inch barrel and a heavy-hitting .75 oz endload, this bat gives senior players the barrel presence, forgiveness, and carry needed to drive the ball with authority.

At the heart of the DDT Blackout is DDT — Dual Distribution Technology. This system is engineered to distribute energy across both pieces of the bat at contact, helping transfer maximum force into the barrel without wasting feel or feedback. The result is a powerful, connected swing that keeps the barrel working through the ball.

Paired with a Zero-Flex Handle, the DDT Blackout is built to reduce vibration and keep the feel clean in the hands. Add in an oversized sweet spot and Short Porch’s proven 2-piece Kevlar construction, and you get a senior slowpitch bat that is built to perform from gap shots to fence-clearing swings.

David Ireland’s signature is on this bat because it was built to perform at his level. Now it’s yours.

Hit like Ireland. Land it in the gap — or over the fence. Either works.
