The New York Yankees kicked off their season with a remarkable performance, sweeping the Milwaukee Brewers and hitting 15 home runs. Discussions emerged about the new 'Torpedo Bats' used by some Yankees, designed to enhance hitting by optimizing barrel size for each player's contact point. While some, like Brewers player Trevor Megill, expressed skepticism about the bats, most Brewers, including coach Pat Murphy, backed their usage, emphasizing that skill, not equipment, is paramount in baseball success.
Brewers believe Yankees' torpedo bats were fair: 'My old ass will tell you this, for sure, it ain't the wand; it's the magician.'
Aaron Judge said, 'Why try to change something if you have something that's working?' in reference to his performance with traditional bats.
