Cool My $.02 worth

We are nearing the end to our spring season SP. To tell the truth I dont see that much difference in the balls. The ball that is being used the most is a DeMarini .44 .375 ball. In the Major leagues they are still hitting them out and the lower leagues they still dont have a clue. The good teams are still winning and the ones that arent are still losing.

The bats have become a much more difficult situation this year with so many now being recertified. Doing a bat check 5min before game time players are waiting or showing up late in bringing in bats that are not certified which is hard to detect when a team may also have 5 or more other bats that have been recertified. ASA should of required the bat manufactors to mark the bat so it would be easy to tell if the bat had been recertified and been uniform where it was mark on each bat so when a batter was in the box the umps could easily detect the bat had been recertified

Side note now the big huff at least at our park is that the Miken ULTRA II should be included on the illegal bat list!!
