I don't know if I'm "in the know" but YES! That bat standard (2013) was made to comply with the 52/300 slow pitch ball, so a harder bat against a "softer" ball does not exceed the maximum batted ball speed limit. It is not allowed to be used in the ASA Women's Fast Pitch or JO Fast pitch (or NFHS fast pitch) since the ball they use is more lively (harder) than the 52/300 ball used in slow pitch. So it is looked at as a system, bat + ball <98MPH batted ball speed.
