Never in NJ
I'd love to go back to wooden bats. When you do a JV game where 8 balls go over the fence—8 balls that were routine flies in the old days—you wish for the wood again.
But it will never happen here in New Jersey. The attorneys will say that a wood bat could break and splinter and somebody could fall on it and get stabbed, somebody will pick up a broken piece and use it as a weapon, bats present a fire hazard on the school bus, etc.
If we take a lesson from slow pitch softball, it was juiced-up bats (and balls) that destroyed a once-great game.
