Fox Factory Holding company.

They used to make bikes back in my day. Not sure if they still do or not.

I think the players themselves can provide their own bats. So if you get called up and don't have a contract with one, you will get a MLB official one. That was Louisville. Now it won't be. But even when Louisville was the official one, Bregman and others still used Marucci. So the players that have deals with LS and already have their bat mold to their perfect weight and size can keep them. I think any way.

I got to play with Micah Gibbs and DJ LeMahieu(he was a bit ahead of me so I was only around him in Spring Training). It was cool seeing how much pride they had in the company. And Marucci bats are sexy as hell. Cool to see them doing so well.

Yes, it's considered a "tool of the trade" and union members are allowed to use whichever they prefer.

Marucci better wood bats. DeMarini better alloy bats.

Considering the stranglehold Louisville Slugger had in the industry it is remarkable. Almost akin to a Baton Rouge soft drink company upstaging Coke. I know, not quite, but......
