Bat testing

[Dakota]

I heard on the radio network news (ABC, I think) that the Massachusettes High School league is considering banning metal bats from high school baseball because the test results show that line drives come off of the metal bats much faster than off of wood bats.

What actually got my attention in this news story was that the news reader reported that the bat manufacturers "deny" that the ball comes off the metal bat faster than off a wooden bat.

Hmmmm...
