manufactured prior to 2000 and if tested, would comply with the
ASA bat performance standards then in effect.
Beginning January 1, 2004, all bats in ASA Championship Play must
pass the ASA 2004 bat standard. All bats having the 2004
certification mark will be allowed in ASA Championship Play.
Bats that have the 2000 certification mark will not be allowed
in ASA Championship Play unless they are listed on an approved
bat list on the ASA website. For convenience, the ASA website
has a listing of bats that do not pass the ASA 2004 bat
standard.
