Yes. He’s a perfectly normal human being. No fake hyped up attitude for the cameras or show. No stupid jokes. No pseudo-intellectualism. No superiority complex. Just a normal guy. It’s a breath of fresh air.
If you are a baseball fan, and happen through Louisville, that factory tour is a great family or for yourself time. Pretty inexpensive, and getting to hit balls in the batting cage with bats made to your hero's specifications for a few extra dollars is so fun. I've been three times and got a custom bat made for myself every trip.
While I have the chance I wanna thank my dad for getting me into baseball .he won’t read this , he’s old school and still listens to the radio on the front stoop . I’ll never forget the 1st time I played ball . 1966 , The older kids up the block were pitching and hitting in the street and dad sent me up there and told me to ask if I can play . Mr. Broschart was pitching over hand and i said , cant throw underhand ? I was like 6 yo and he said , that’s not how we play here son and proceeded to put my hands together , choke up on the bat and spread my legs . It was all fun and games ever since .
2 yr later he now plays for the Cubs lol Edit - Also, don't tell me 24 is your favorite number too... just so happens Pederson is #24 now too. Crazy huh?
I have been there before it is so interesting to walk through there and see how the bats are made especially for a baseball player or a baseball fan highly recommend going and taking a tour of you are ever in Louisville Kentucky you won't regret it
Stuff like this is what makes me damn proud to be an American. God bless all these kind’ve all American companies. I’m in the process of starting my company, and I want all the work to be done here by American hands, in the country that I love. God bless America. ✊🏼🇺🇸
I've crossed the bridge on I65 from Indiana into Kentucky many times and the first thing you see is that big ass Louisville Slugger factory. I've always wanted a tour. Where do they make the corked ones?
The comp of Joc Pederson to Ted Williams coming to the factory looking at bats and looking for a way to find anything to give him a little bit of an edge made me chuckle. I'm guessing Joc is still on the search for that edge.... and can't find it at the Louisville Slugger factory, haha. Joc's a .228 career hitter who averages 23 HRs a year. Williams, a career .344 hitter who averaged 27 HRs/year in his career...... averaging fewer games/year.
It’d be cool to get a branded bat without sanding off the scorch marks. Hell, take a blowtorch to it and add some more. Then a nice varnish to seal it in
My question to Louisville : What flavor do you coat Puig's bat that makes him lick it?
Steroids
@@MRMALO-ed3jp it's just a joke bro
Funny

@Christian Frank white dick
It’s like “our Fort Knox”
*unlocks standard single lock and enters room.*
The bat vault reminded me Harry Potter going into the Wand store.
You,Sir, had an awesome childhood.
Stop it
Ollivanders
Ethanchase Dude he is a cultured man you are an uncultured swine
🤣
Joc did great in the Home Run Derby last year (2019) glad he' still around!
Louisville needs a baseball team.
They got a minor team, the Bats
Tira Diaz no like a mlb team
quocthai nguyen Louisville Lions
The Louisville sluggers
It would never last. NBA team has failed many of times here
would love to have an air refreshner of that wood factory smell....
Create it, cause if you don’t! I will!
@@patrickmahomie7556 I need a update on that
I like how this is in my recommended right when he gets traded
Valentino Gomez not no more
He's staying LOL
Do they build outfield cameras at this factory? If so I'll take 30.
Thankfully not anymore
Luckily the trade didn't go through. Now he has a WS ring.
Going to the Louisville slugger was cool, even better that Joc Peterson hit a home run with the special order bat he chose.
Some nice bats there
You’re literally everywhere on CZcams man 😂I see you in the comments of country music videos, pop music videos, now this
Got a source on that?
Joc seems like... a simple fellow....
"Are there stuff in these?"
Jon he asked so he can tell the density of the bat, if it was hollowed out or corked it would sound different
Yes, he’s a regular guy and that’s a good thing.
Yes. He’s a perfectly normal human being. No fake hyped up attitude for the cameras or show. No stupid jokes. No pseudo-intellectualism. No superiority complex. Just a normal guy. It’s a breath of fresh air.
And Jon is a simple name
I remember watching Stu Pederson growing up back in the good 'ol days when he played for Syracuse. Dang, time flies...
What he doesn’t know is that they just won the World Series
😂😂😂
@@sebastianpoole553 🦗🦗🦗
@Tiko Fun tiko im a huge fan!
Oh never mind f you fake boy
It’s about time they always choke
He was like a kid in a candy store
You just made my day!
@@peatelisucksbigfatdick9050 nice
I wanted to sit down at the branding or milling gear and turn some bats.
More like a dodger outfielder in a bat factory

Took the tour 10 years ago was awesome. Met the guy who made Frank Robinson's bats pre computer. He's was like the tour miester.
I would love to tour their facility. The smell of wood would be an experience in itself
"I want to smell another mans wood" 😂
It’s really cool would highly recommend
I live in Louisville and I’ve been there many times and it never gets old
Agent J once you get in the double digit street numbers go back
@@calebr3097 do they sell the bats cheaper over there ?
I had to watch this now that Joc is slapping them Homeruns for my Atlanta Bravos now! 💪🤟
No
Dodgers please don't let Joc slip away from your organization pay him to stay
David R he’s average at best
@@travis6694 I see joc about to be a break out slugger, he's a name to look out for
David R he had a underrated year forsure he had a good approach this year
@@travis6694 you don't understand how talented Pederson is.
Joc took Verlander deep along with other great pitchers
David R 2.3 WAR is average man
Joc seem like a great guy love how he always trying to get better you are never perfect always strive to be better
If you keep making videos like this I’ll keep watching.
Bats have changed pretty much 20 or 20 years ago until today. I still keep my Louisville Slugger bat I usted in 80's and can see difference
Joc, I love your homers but please show some restraint after strike two.
Dwight Schrute what do you mean
Lol
@@FeelingPeculiar this was in your recommendation??
“I don’t like it dad...sorry.” 😂😂
Damn wish I knew. yungjoc is one of my favorite non Cubs and I'm just a few miles from the factory.
And he's using Ian Happs bat
I'm like 5 minutes away from the factory
2 yr later he now plays for the Cubs lol
Edit - Also, don't tell me 24 is your favorite number too... just so happens Pederson is #24 now too. Crazy huh?
So many bats to choose from. It looks like a lot of work to make all those bats
“Louisville Slugger has been making musical instruments for metal bands like Slipknot for over 25 years”. Lol
July 2022 - Boy, O’l Joc has really put on the Lbs!
I have been there before it is so interesting to walk through there and see how the bats are made especially for a baseball player or a baseball fan highly recommend going and taking a tour of you are ever in Louisville Kentucky you won't regret it
Love this video especially da vault and the burning 0f the bat!
I MA A CARDINAL FAN LIVE AND DIE, THIS PIECE HAS NOW MADE ME A HUGE JP FAN HES SUCH A NICE GUY!!!!
Everybody hearing red rocket:
Me hearing red rocket: wait what’d he say
Man that was like Olivanders for baseball bats haha
Stuff like this is what makes me damn proud to be an American. God bless all these kind’ve all American companies. I’m in the process of starting my company, and I want all the work to be done here by American hands, in the country that I love. God bless America. ✊🏼🇺🇸
Wish I kept my first LS from when I was a kid. I can still remember it.
Joc is my favorite dodger player low key lol 😂
Lucky him
I’m korean I love baseball and MLB🇰🇷🇰🇷
Great, if you love to ride bike and motorbike then you have balls
So glad he’s finally on his favorite team. NOW he’s right where he needs to be in San Francisco
i went to the museum a while back. you can just feel the history in the air
Dodgers took the dub again tonight one more it go
Oh my candy man, soooooooo sweet!!! Let's go dogers!!! Let's go peterson!!!!
I took the tour at LS a few years ago while passing thru town. Josh Harrison from the Pirates at the time was going thru.
Joc is getting to know his bats, thats how hes so damn good
The sound of the wood clanking is god like
We miss you joc
As a baseball fan, this is really cool!
"Sorry Dad!" Love that part
Joc's arms though 💙
Proud to say im from Louisville
I have been through there a couple times, I was surprised how big of a city Louisville is! You would have never guessed from seeing it on a map.
I am surprised they don’t have a batting cage setup for MLB players to try various bat configurations.
This is like going to get my skateboards made 😍😂 this is awesome 👏🏽
Joc is on the cubs now.
God bless America
I like how the bat he liked was Ian happ’s bat
Miss this guy
LET'S GO JOC!
Its like the wand shop from harry potter. Pure magic
Joc is a great player hopefully the dodgers could sign him to a long term contract.
Wish there were more videos like this!
Video should be called worlds most charismatic man visits bat factory.
I attempted to make a bat in woodshop on the lathe ended up lookin like a toothpick Haha so soothing though
I've crossed the bridge on I65 from Indiana into Kentucky many times and the first thing you see is that big ass Louisville Slugger factory. I've always wanted a tour. Where do they make the corked ones?

I actually do alot of maintenance work for a company that used to make the dowels for Louisville Slugger
That bat vault is like Ollivander's Wand Shop.
Thanks joc how cool to see
Cool place. I was there about fifteen years ago. Still have the bat they made for me!
Lucille is thirsty, she's a VAMPIRE BAT!!!!!!!!
Very cool in person 10/10 would recommend
Joctober baby
it’s like harry potter picking his wand
My mans be the Olivander of the baseball bats
Love baseball !!!!
I got to go In there when I went a month ago
It's like harry potter but with bats
Bro every bat in the vault that he touched he did the exact same move lmao
Joc the Rock! It must be nice to see where your weapon is made.
I miss when Puig was on the dodgers I'm insanely happy that mookie is on the dodgers tho still miss Puig
I went there this Summer. 10/10 do recommend
imagine the "baseball Bat Bros" in that vault. Especially if there was a college version of the vault.
So glad Joc is going to still play for our Dodgers!
Not anymore lol
0:26 Biggest dowel rod option in the bin at Home Depot.
He just hit one last night, with that red bat!
Hell yeah world series winner's baby!
love this guy
Yo quiero saber a cómo están esos bates para poder juntar y comprar una
Extremely interesting, thank you for this!
It’d be cool to get a branded bat without sanding off the scorch marks. Hell, take a blowtorch to it and add some more. Then a nice varnish to seal it in
My Red Sox up 2-0 though better hope some dem bats magic because they're severely outmatched
Glad he wore those safety glasses on top of his head.
I got to see that in person also
I miss my Joc. 😥
Just imagine being a pro. Having unlimited access to bat companies and free supply. That is my wet dream!
Piece of history
I Loved this name brand
If I was a pro baseball player, this is where I'd go to decompress for sure
Only this time, I'm not there.
future giants legend
At least he didnt hit a grand slam with a 3-0 count. Woodward was the third base coach and probably wouldve gotten mad 😂😂😂😂
My favorite parts was when they looked at bats
