MLB Slugger Mark Trumbo Launches Homerun Relationship with Tater Grip
VISTA, Calif., July 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- "The only thing you touch on your bat is the grip, it makes perfect sense to use the best available grip on the market, Tater Grip," says Mark Trumbo, who all season has sported a red Tater Grip on his bat. Trumbo has ripped 19 homeruns and 50+ RBIs, putting him in the top ten in both categories.

Tater Grip's patented performance rubber grip offers ball players the same quality grips used by professional golfers on tour. Made from proprietary Duralast rubber, these grips are constructed to last, dampen vibration, and increase bat control. Its construction from a single piece of rubber means it won't twist, torque or separate like wrap-style grips, making performance superior. Prior to Tater Grip, ball players were limited to pine tar or wrap-style grips made from synthetic leather which wore out quickly and provided no true performance characteristics. Additionally, Tater Grip engineers developed a process which allows the grip to slide over the knob of the bat, and then shrink to fit over the handle, allowing simple installation and a customized fit – technology used by all PGA tour pros today.
"The grip you choose on your bat is a key component to feeling comfortable at the plate and that is why I choose Tater Grip," says slugger Mark Trumbo.
This summer Tater Grip launched their new solid color performance grips with great success. Along with hundreds of college baseball and fast pitch players, Tater Grips have been used by multiple Major League Baseball players as well as thousands of youth players worldwide. Tater Grips can be seen on the fast pitch teams of University of Arkansas and Notre Dame, and on the bat of Los Angeles Dodgers Adrian Gonzalez.
"We are very pleased that Mark Trumbo offered to test the grip this spring and equally pleased that he has used our red Tater Grip exclusively in the 2013 season," says Tater Grip owner, Craig Pollard. Mark Trumbo recently signed a one-year endorsement agreement with Tater Grip, although Trumbo's bat sported a Tater Grip before officially endorsing the product.
Tater Grips are available for $14.99-$19.99 at all Sport Chalet retail stores as well as online retailers' baseballsavings.com and homerunmonkey.com.
