Our Review
Rawlings is following the 2027 Icon The Chosen One BBCOR with a USA Baseball version: the RUS7IONE10, a -10 one-piece composite for Little League, Cal Ripken, Babe Ruth, PONY and AABC play. Like its 2026 predecessor (RUS6IONE10) it merges the Icon's In/Tense carbon barrel into a continuous one-piece structure, the pitch being directness — nothing lost at a connection point — in a league format where performance is capped and every bit counts. It is listed in 28/18, 29/19, 30/20 and 31/21 at $249.99, well under the $349.99 two-piece 2027 Icon USA. The listing is live at CheapBats but not yet purchasable, so this is a coming-soon record with no score. Once it ships we will score it against the 2026 Chosen One USA and the 2027 Icon USA.
