Please show us the exact rule (not a LL rule) that prevents the use of a white bat.

1.10 says something to the effect of "no colored bats may be used without the approval of the rules committee."

My very old NAPBL manual says the colors were "natural, black and wood stain."

My newer-but-still-old MLBUM says there's an "annual bat bulletin" -- I think this covers the colors and manufacturers. They didn't send it to me.

You know what it says? "Stop reading and umpire."
