A first end of the bat barrel is inserted into the second end of the handle; the first end of the bat barrel being secured within the second end of the handle. An illustrative bat includes an elongate composite handle and an elongate barrel, each having opposite first and second ends. The first end of the barrel is disposed within the second end of handle. A mechanism secures the first end of the barrel within the second end of the handle. A rigid sleeve encircles the second end of the handle, extending towards the first end thereof.
