Reply to "Why use high drop bat when old enough to use BBCOR in school ball?"

LOL, I have to reminisce.  2017 is in a 13U tournament a few years back no BBCOR requirement and at 5'2" 95lbs he came up down by a run with a man on 3rd.  The whole team is sharing a single drop -5 Easton and he turned on an inside pitch and cleared a double high 16' short left porch (280')  He ran to first took his turn and couldn't pick up the ball so he ran back to first...coach told him to go on, so he ran to second and stopped again...at this point the umpire finally came in and told him to keep running.  His team mates were merciless about being in such bad shape he had to stop twice on a home run...After the game I had to ask...did you think somehow the ball bounced over that 16" fence and he said "No, but I know I can't hit that far so I figured it went in a hole or something"  Never let it be said baseball players are not realists!
