EASTON DIAMOND SPORTS, LLC. TAKES THE ALL-NEW GHOST® UNLIMITED FASTPITCH BAT BEYOND THE LIMITS

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (JUNE 13, 2024) – Easton Diamond Sports, the industry leader in equipment innovation and technology, today announced the Ghost bat built to take hitters further than ever before, the 2025 Ghost® Unlimited fastpitch bat returns with new technology and design.

Ghost Unlimited is available for purchase on Easton.com as of June 13^th, and all retailers June 20^th.

The new Ghost Unlimited fastpitch bat launches just on the heels the 2025 Women’s College World Series where it was used by the likes of nationally ranked UCLA and Alabama, and all of the Easton sponsored teams through postseason play.

“We are excited to introduce the newest addition to the Ghost franchise. Easton wants to continue to make the best performing bats in the game to match the high performance of our athletes,” said Kassi Farmer, Easton Fastpitch bat product manager. 

“Our Double Barrel technology is unmatched and players will feel a difference with the Unlimited’s one-piece design.”

The 2025 Ghost Unlimited brings a larger sweet spot and optimized feel to provide maximum performance and unlimited power across all fields. The 1” longer Double Barrel EXT technology provides the highest allowable performance across an even larger hitting area, creating an even bigger sweet spot.

Sonic Comp Max material is the most consistent, durable composite Easton has ever made, resulting in an enormous, sweet spot and a sound that’s nothing less than iconic. Easton’s VRS1 internal connection point creates the feeling of a 2-piece bat, minimizing vibration and maximizing energy transfer while alleviating weight to further optimize performance across the longer barrel.

“Easton’s combination of innovative technology and dedication to players help us produce bats with an amazing feel and the highest performance possible,” said Matt Arndt, Easton SVP of Product & R&D. 

“We look forward to adding another mainstay to our Ghost legacy that will continue to deliver results at every level.”

Easton’s Ghost Unlimited and the entire Ghost Franchise is the #1 Performance Fastpitch Softball Bat Series on the market, the #1 Bat in Women’s College World Series History and the top choice of professional players, D1 college programs and travel ball programs. *

With certification by ASA (USA), USSSA (fastpitch only), NSA, ISA and WBSC (ISF) on this new bat, every player can rise above the competition with the Ghost Advanced no matter where they compete.
