Metal bats are used in the youth leagues through college because it's cheaper - they don't break. But the tradeoff is the baseball projects faster off the metal bat, which may cause injuries to infielders - in particular, pitchers - that wouldn't happen if a batter was using a wood bat.I would hate to see youth leagues having to limit the number of teams or high schools having to drop baseball/fast-pitcg softball due to financial considerations brought on by government involving themselves in this issue -- passing laws banning the use of metal bats in leagues in their municipalities.
Wood bats are a must at the pro level - you couldn't have the type of line drives being hit with metal bats - but it's common-sense that the 10-year-old league playing on a field a mile from the stadium doesn't have a major-league bankroll for equipment.

I'm a big fan of wood bats, and I think college baseball ought to switch to wood. Players are getting too strong, and someone is going to end up seriously injured or killed by one of the lasers coming off one of those space-age alloy bats. As a matter of fact, as a first-year high school coach, I think high school ball-players should switch to wood bats. I understand fans like offense, and that's why colleges may be loath to change, but as a baseball purist, I get a little sick of seeing scores that look like they'd be better suited for the NFL. 14-7 doesn't make a very good baseball game.Who's the ace of the Yankees rotation now, Clemens or Wang?
