This is what he's talking about. It has said "Image coming soon" for those bats for a few weeks now.

Okay, I see where that is noted. However, when it comes down to it, the model # is what the umpire should be using to determine the bats' status, not the image and there are some models that are quite similar in design and color scheme.

Pick up the bat and look for the model number. Some are real small and a pain to find, but that is how you do your job.

In this instance, I'm siding with Esq Ump. It is silly to take so long to put the photos on. Yes we look for the serial number, but having a visual is good. There's no good reason for Easton to not provide ASA with images.

And there's also no good reason for ASA to not do a simple Google search by model number and figure out what the bats look like. Just a few mouse clicks and I found an SCN11BH pic:

Do you get the group emails Mr Moran sends out to Orange Co. members? ? He sent out an attachment couple of weeks ago of just that - ask him to send you one if you did not get it....

I'm the one who sent it to HIM. It's not fully updated.
