Topic: Bats
Discussion: Bat Tester

140 is just the set mark that they came up with for senior bats, just as USSSA had a mark of 220 at one time and now has it set at 240. This link below shows a USSSA bat tester:

Just because a bat is below the 140 mark does not mean it's altered it just means that it does not pass the 140 compression mark. The link below answers some questions:

You can also google bat testing and there are plenty of links that will explain what bat testing does.

Discussion: New rule on shaved bats

Altered bats are going to be an issue until bat companies step up to make end caps non removable. Other associations have testing and altering of bats is still an issue. As a pitcher myself you just have to protect yourself the best you can.
