During the video conference Eliott Hopkins was very clear about two things:
1) Every bat must have a distinctive knob on the end. It appears in some areas of the US players had used tape to make the handle the same size as the knob. Safety issue.
2) Hopkins also made it perfectly clear that bats must be a smooth cylinder. That means it must be round and smooth. Triangular handles, ribbed handles, holes in the handle DO NOT make a cylindrical smooth bat.
Remember: currently there are no bats available that have the BBCOR approval. If you see it today the bat is fake.
BTW, there are websites already on line that promise to "cork your metal bat" or "mill the inside wall of the bat thinner for more bat speed."
