I feel that this is telling a coach to alter the bat and then allowing it in.

What is the feeling in here on this?
It is nothing more than telling a coach to tighten a screw holding the face mask securely to the helmet.

This is a common problem, known to ASA, in the older Anderson models. At ASA's request, Anderson reworked their bats to eliminate the rivets holding the cap into place.
