I'm not advocating that leagues allow non-approved bats and/or balls, but is it really their decision?

Thanx.
Look a couple of post "up" to see the conversation Mike & his commissioner had with Bollingers.
I work a men's league where we ask both mangers if all of their bats are legal. We do not inspect equipment and only check the legality of a bat if the opposing team points out a bat and wants it checked.
