WHat was the difference that was added then? I'm seriously asking. How did we change the bats from 2000 to 2009?



Around 2000 or 2001, The weight drop on the bats went from -5oz to -3oz. This basically means the inertia on the bats changed to a smaller spot thus shrinking the amount of the barrel they could hit a ball with a still destroy it.

In 2009, LSU exposed the problems with the bats in that they realized that if the bats were used more often, they would slowly being to wear down and the bats became more powerful over time. Thus the outburst of homers we had during the CWS.

LSU blasted homers all season. That wasn't just a CWS thing.
