Turning2,
Florida Half Century. I thought it was a force out also.

Discussion: 1st Base force out

Ground ball is batted to infielder and thrown to 1st base for put out. First baseman drops ball and picks it up in bare hand and touches base with empty glove at same time before runner touches base. Runner was called safe, umpire said it had to be either ball in hand touching base or foot. What is the correct call?

I purchased an Ambush from Alan when they first came out and the bat had plenty of pop. I really liked it. Problem was it only lasted about 300-400 swings. I told Alan and he stated that was not bad. Don't know any other feelings on this, but that is not durable nor acceptable.

Mike Macenko has the best prices on Combat bats and stands behind what he sells! He is one of the good guys!

Tri18-My Ambush is performing great after about 60 swings. Hits every bit as well as my Reebok or Miken. No complaints.
Thanks!

Discussion: Miken is NOT taking care of the problem Ultra IIs

Hit with "replacement" bat yesterday and bat performed like a Miken should. First Miken was a dud and I returned it after about 40 swings.

Glad to see that the "mistake" was taking care of. Would hate to see the consumer get a break every now and then.

mad dog,
Here is the information on my 28 oz endload Reebok Melee that cracked after 60 swings.

12/22/2010
Temp. 70 degrees
40 swings
Balls 44-375 Trump Stote that are stored in my house at room temp.
Bat is stored in my house.
The park is about 10 minutes away. We hit every Wednesday from 3:30 to about 5:00.

12/29/2010
Temp. 60 degrees
20 swings
Same balls 44-375 Trump Stote that are stored in my house at room temp.
Bat was in Pyro-Flite bat warmer from the time I left my house and at all times at field. Bat is stored in my house.
The park is about 10 minutes away.
Noticed bat was cracked. I live in NE Florida and bat was rotated after every swing.

60 total swings = cracked bat

Reebok International received my broken bat on 1/6/11 and I received my replacement bat on 2/23/11.

Thanks, surf88! I'm actually over it now, don't really care if Reebok makes it right or not. I know mine was hit less than 60 swings. It is a shame the dishonest always makes it hard for the honest people. :(
