Patent number: 11666814Abstract: A sleeve fits over the barrel of a bat. The sleeve defines an opening such that, when the sleeve is applied to the bat, a significant portion of the barrel of the bat is revealed. The sleeve is made of a light-weight, sound-dampening material, such that when the batter hits a pitched ball in an area of the bat covered by the sleeve, the normal “crack” or “ping” of the ball hitting the bat is not heard. Instead, the batter hears a duller, less sharp sound, providing immediate feedback to the batter that he/she did not hit the ball in the desired area of the bat.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2020Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Inventor: Matthew J.
