The Yankees hit a franchise-record nine home runs in their 20-9 win over the Brewers on Saturday .

The bat shape resembles a bowling pin because the barrel was moved a little further down and closer to the label.

Bat shape is uniquely designed for each hitter's sweet spot, or the area on the bat where he most often makes contact with the ball.

Outfielder Cody Bellinger estimated that five Yankees hitters are using the new bat model.

Yankees players say they expect the torpedo bats to become more popular throughout the league.

Judge was categorically uninterested in the new bat design one day after he slugged three home runs, including a grand slam, against the Brewers on Saturday in the Bronx .

Judge said he might consider employing some of the newer equipment and technology into his game.
