Default Re: Little Leaguer's Metal Bat Injury Sparks Lawsuit

Would it make them feel better if their son were beaned by a ball hit from a wooden bat? I feel bad for them and their son but a lawsuit isn't the answer.

Injuries happen in sports. Either deal with them or put your kids into a rubber rooms for their own protection.

The reason Little League uses metal bats is because they don't break and fly into pieces as wooden bats can. The metal bats are designed so that they replicate the hits made by wooden bats. (Atleast that's what I was told by someone in our Little League.)
