He did pull almost every pitch with the 28", but was making solid contact. The 29" was a bit of a chore, but he was also probably getting a little tired and was not choking up.

I am not up on the current technology as far as which bat is perceived the best. I believe the key is as long as the bat feels good in his hands, he will be on his way. If a hitter picks up a bat that feels good in his hands, usually good results follow as well.

With regard to the earlier comment regarding him pulling the ball, solid contact even if foul is good. He can always make slight adjustments later. He could be pulling the ball just because of enthusiasm (and wanting to hit the ball hard) and because he is geeked up to hit.
