Louisville Slugger bats are being made again

Hillerich & Bradsby Company resumed production at its Louisville Slugger bat factory in Louisville Monday as parts of Kentucky’s economy reopened after weeks of shutdowns.

The company has new health and safety protocols that include twice daily temperature checks and masks for its employees and social distancing standards at work stations and in the break room.
