But then the question becomes, who are these new bats meant to benefit? The college game or the scouts and MLB?


MLB easily and makes it pointless that college baseball is getting all this TV time now. Other than fans of those teams, who wants to watch a 2-1, 1-0 college baseball game when you can watch it with much better players in the MLB?

Except for the fact that the wooden bats actually hit the balls harder than the new bats.

A. Because the ball that the wooden bats are hitting are harder and more compact.

B. Because wooden bats are heavier in the barrel and solid at the point of contact.

I bet if the NCAA held a home run derby and gave the players the option of using a wooden bat or the new bats, every single one of them would pick the wooden bat.
