From another board

[chapmaja]

OK what is the opinion on this from another board.

Through the channels of travel buddies we are aware of a player using a bat which was doctored by a parent. High school rules dictate ejection for both the player and head coach and there have been criminal suits against those using a doctored bat and injuring an opposing player which is what the guidelines of bat regulations have been established to prevent. The question is how does one go about protesting a bat to an umpire? Is it in the umpires jurisdiction to confiscate a bat or to request pulling off an end cap to see if the bat was shaved?
