The current situation regarding bats is ironic, considering U-trip brags on their web site that they were the first organization to establish bat performance standards. Now, virtually anything is seemingly legal in U-trip (caveat - I don't umpire in U-trip, so this is what I "hear").

Was it U-trip a couple of year ago that "banned" all of Louisville Slugger's bats, but the reason turned out to be LS had not paid the annual tribute to sanction the bats? (It had nothing to do with performance.)
