By their own reasoning about a warning label. Should the label have not been on the ball instead of the bat? After all, the pitcher is the one holding the ball, it would be kind of hard for them to read a warning label on a bat from 60' 6" away.

And I suppose they have never seen a wood bat shatter and fly at players on the field or into the stands. I remember seeing a photo of a minor league pitcher being carted off the field a few years back with a huge shard of bat sticking out of his arm. Im sorry for their loss, but its no wonder MLB requires the bat manufacturers to carry a 20 mil liability policy in order to supply bats.
