For me, it was a TPX 30 inch 21 ounce.

Now they make the same 30 inch bat probably about 15 ounces (I could have hit alot more homers! As in, one homer).

Funny thing is, somebody on this board actually umpired my final LL game, when I was 12. I'd like to point out I went 2-3, hard single on a curveball, and the fake bunt pull back ground ball to F6. That pitcher now pitches D1. I guess the highlight of my baseball playing days! Ahhh LL, thats why it can be so good to be umpiring it, for me anyway, because I still remember so clearly.
