Unless the permanately tapered bat met ASA bat qualifications (which I seriously doubt), I would remove it from the game. Mike is right, the knob is on the bat for a purpose and the handle should not be altered (tapered down)
with tape or a grip. It IS a safety issue!
No offense, gst23, but are you an umpire and a player, or just a player? Usually questions about bats' tape/grip come from SP players. Just checking------
