I am a regular poster on this forum, however, I am posting this under a different username due to the sensitive nature of this issue.
Our State HS association has received many complaints about rolled and shaved bats being used in HS games. The HS association and our local ASA association have an agreement allowing the HS association to use the ASA bat testing machine this HS season.
I have learned that earlier this week, the bat testing machine was taken to a local HS game prior to the game and bats were tested by representatives of the HS association..
One bat failed the test. When the umpires arrived at the field, they were told by the association officials that player # XX from XXX HS is to be ejected from this game for having an altered bat.
I am working with our HS board to convince the association that umpires should not be involved if this is the process. If the altered bat is used in teh game, then the umpires will deal with it per NFHS rules.
What I need is some information/ammunition we can use with our commissioner to help convince him that the umpires are not to be involved in this pre-game testing. Thanks
