As for the wooden bat issue seems a bit backward. Those made prior to 2000 are legal by rule. "Plays of the month" over the summer stated that those made after 2000 needed to be stamped. However, they are (and manufacturers are not stamping them). The new rule needs to make all wooden bats legal if they conform to all characteristics of a legal bat (weight, size, knob, grip).

The point there is that the manufacturers were told to apply the stamps beginning in 2000. Maybe it is a trademark or licensing issue, really don't know.
