We (umpires), no longer check the bats & helmets as of January 2012. It is the Head Coach's responsibility to make sure that the bats and helmets are properly labeled and approved. We are supposed to ask the Head Coach at the plate meeting (you do have a plate meeting, don't you?) if their players are properly equipped (that includes helmets and bats, now).

So the only time we become involved is if there is an appeal from the defense that an improper bat is being used. As long as the stamp or emboss says BBCORE, the bat is okay. No stick-on labels are allowed.
