It's been revealed that the Yankees are using new custom bats known as "torpedo" bats, which have more wood at the label to give a larger spot to the area where players make contact. They've hit so many home runs to start the season, but it's a very small sample size. Is it the bats? Or is it that the Milwaukee Brewers ' pitching is just THAT bad?

Even across the country in San Diego, Manny Machado is hearing the buzz about the Yankees’ bats. The Padres' third baseman wants in. During an in-game interview on ESPN’s “Sunday Night Baseball”, the Padres star was asked about New York’s recent power surge and their use of the now-infamous “torpedo” bats.
