I emailed Tony on the equipment committee, and here's his response:

Dave,

Yes, this is true. I have done it myself and you can definitely feel the ridges of a rolled bat. I am on the equipment committee and we have not recommended this method be used to throw out any bats. This is not a "perfected" test but only an indicator that the bat may have been rolled. Thanks,

Tony
I think the bottom line is that it's a neat trick, but it's not consistent enough to be used as a reliable indicator of a rolled bat.

Call Dunder Mifflin and cancel your huge paper orders. Ask for Dwight.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
