My experience with high school (girls' fast-pitch) softball is that juiced bats are not a problem. I'm probably violating some federal law by saying this, but the girls don't hit the ball hard enough for bats to make a difference. (And high school uses .47-core and maybe even .50-core balls, too.) One college ump told me that they use juiced balls to try to get at least a few long balls into the game, so I doubt if they're going to worry about live bats, either.

So a mouthpiece for the bat companies says . . .

And cigarette smoking is good for you, too.
