I removed them from a JO game up here in Seattle... got our UIC out on the field, and he agreed with me. Bats removed from that game... too bad for the team - they had 3 of their bats gone.
After the game, the coach brought the same three bats to me. He told me he used a rock and the chainlink fence post, and pounded the burrs back in... then asked if they could be used in the next game. I inspected them, and the burrs were gone/pounded flat. I told him that I would probably let them back in, but that would be the new PU's call. (we rotated positions between games)
The new PU allowed them.
I've seen them in a few other games. If I feel any burr, I have the coach use the rock/post technique to pound the burr out.
