FED - Bats

[Thunderheads]

All,

there's not a rule that would cause INT, or anything else if while during play, and end-cap is released from a bat and it distracts a potential fielder?

That ball would be in play, play stands, and you'd remove the bat at that point.

 

yes?

 

I can't find anything ...

 

Thx

I would treat it like a broken bat, which would not be interference. There is a distinction between a bat that flies out of the batter's hands, and a bat that breaks. The former can be interference, the latter cannot.

Took the same MHSAA test and got 100%... Not to give you the answer, but Steve is correct.

However, If you were able to see evidence that the cap fell off because it had been tampered with, you now have an illegal bat, and the batter is out.

LOL, yup, that's the answer I got too!
