> I'm trying to decide what size/weight baseball bat I should get..I'm around 5ft 4 in./ 130-135 lbs. and 24 years old so I'm rather small for my age. I'm looking to get a bat so I could play recreationally. I played little league when I was younger so I'm trying to get back into playing some baseball.

Use a 34 inch 31 to 32 ounce aluminum bat. You may have to choke up an inch. Since you are not tall, the 34 inch bat should be a good fit. (Practicing with a wood bat 34 inches (32 to 34 ounces) should improve your swing of the aluminum bat.
