Central Massachusetts attempted to institute a use of wood bats just for the post-season of 2004.

They withdrew the rule before the playoffs began.

BTW, I did three games that year where one team was using aluminum bats exclusively and the other team used wood bats exclusively (as a prep for the playoffs).

The aggregate score was: Aluminum 33, Wood 2.
