I think we now have a nice balance between run production and pitching. You see pitchers throwing inside a lot more than you did ten years ago. I think that when a pitcher cannot do that effectively, it takes away from the game.

I also think that if college baseball were to go to a wooden bat, it would take the game to the opposite extreme. I love a 2-1 pitchers duel with solid defense and strategy. But I also think that it makes these types of games more special when they do not become the predominant box score. I also think that it would be too expensive for college baseball. Teams would go through a lot of bats during the course of the fall and spring seasons. Some have suggested that Major League Baseball would be willing to foot the bill. But that is a lot of hardware that would need to be provided to all Division I programs. The dollars would be large and coordination would be difficult. I have a hard time seeing this happen.

Mr. Brian for a avid golfer like yourself I am surprise you wouldn't want that extra edge that the golf manufactors are producing
