I'll bet you love telling your wife "I told you so"...
Notice, I didn't say the rule's intent will be changed, but it is a fact that the rule's words will be changed (at least according to NFCA). This is not an interpretation, but a change to the written rule. To clarify the intent, I'm sure. Good thing, too, given the variation from state to state in the instructions given to umpires and the somewhat meaningless "approved" list from ASA as it pertains to older bat models.
