It's still ASA problem and the bat thing is still well out of hand, which is ASA's fault. They set their standards... Manufacturers like to make money so they comply, ASA is now chasing their tail because obviously ASA goofed up.

The ONLY banned bats SHOULD be: Hot bats (bats designed to intentionally be outside ASA specs) modified bats, and damaged bats.

Any thing else represents MAJOR failures on the part of the ASA bat cert program.

The bat manufacturers KNOWINGLY created bats that would eventually exceed the existing standards of the ASA. At the time the ASA did not or was not able to test the bat over the entire lifespan. Now they can.

How is it that the fault of the bat manufacturers gets laid onto the ASA? That's what I want to know...
