ASA Rule 1 - Definitions
Altered Bat: When the physical structure of a legal softball bat has been changed.
I read "has been changed" to be an act of changing the bat, not the same as "has changed".
Illegal Bat: A bat that does not meet the requirements of an official bat or warm-up bat.
Odds are pretty damn good that an altered bat is going to meet the requirements of an official bat.
