I, too, agree with the minority. Why does it take a governing body to mandate what responsible parents and coaches should do? If batting helmets weren't required by rule, would they let girls bat without them?

Yeah, perhaps other states will take similar action, but I don't see this becoming a FED-wide requirement without a NOCSAE-approved device on the market.
