Another reason to use a -5 bat in practice on a team that plays under different rule sets is to earn your spot.  If you are a player that is fighting for a spot in the line up, than you better bring your best game to practice every day.  No reason to walk into the box during coach pitch BP with your BBCOR when you are allowed to use your -5 XL1.  

 

That’s a terrible indictment of coaches who you’re making out to be ignorant about what equipment their players use or who can’t figure into the evaluation that the performance is helped or hindered by the equipment. But forgetting all that, why not grab an old Titanium or rolled and shaved composite bat for BP to really look good?

In Babe Ruth as late as last summer, my own son did, in fact, use an old titanium bat in games. It was completely legal under BR rules.
