Article is the local paper here the other day said that prior to the bbcor bats, these little leaguers have been swingin glass. Writer referred to the rolling and shaving as "bat shenanigans". I had no idea it had made its way down to the kids. Makes situations like what happened in this vid even scarier. Heres a link to the article if interested http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2011/aug/17/new-rules-bat-shenanigans-trickle-down-to-the/
The local Craigslist here is full of ads by people selling rolled and shaved kids bats, especially girls softball. And the guys who offer the services must be busy! They advertise like ambulance chasers!
I was blown away when I found out that slowpitch is only a fraction of a bat docs business. Since then I've never looked at little league the same or college softball the same.
You know they swing shaved. No swing speed and launching those balls like 50ft past the fence. When they hit the ball their arms stop or go a little back and its like the ball was shot out of a cannon.
