    Are bat warmers legal in high school play? Is this considered a bat alteration?

    Do an internet search on this one. I know that ASA has a regulartion on this one. They are out there. Used mostly at the beginning of the season. Gets to bats over 60 degrees gives a little more pop. Legal or not? Have to ask someone that has a high school rule book on that one.

    New can of worms. If a team uses warmers and the other does not. The team using the warmers win. Is it because of the warmers? Yes, warmer bats give the bats more pop therefore more distances http://www.hot-bats.com/hotbatreview.htm . Now, with this can we open a new ones with personal uniform wear, cool amour, hot pads and many others that are for player comfort. A warm dugout is better than a cold one!!!:N1oldschool:

    How much pop do you need

    with these 350.00 dollar bats? I can see using something like this to keep the bat from breaking or reducing the stress on the bat in the cold temps. But if a kid is using one to increase his "pop" in his bat he probaly doesnt have much pop in that bat to start with.

    Hey Coach May!

    a bat warmer in Granville County is when you get the fat kid to sit on the bats between innings!
