Spangler, Westmont, and Nanty Glo will not field teams this summer, which means 12 teams will compete in the Cambria County American Legion Baseball League in 2012. The decrease in teams is just one of a number of changes to be seen in 2012.
Several other changes will soon be announced that will affect play during the 2012 season. The major change this season will be the implementation of the BBCOR bat standard. The BBCOR bat standard is used by NCAA and NFHS and will now be used by American Legion Baseball as well. The intention of the BBCOR bat standard is to decrease the exit velocity of batted balls, which should decrease injuries to pitchers and fielders. It will also affect the amount of offense in American Legion games going forward.
In addition, Pennsylvania has proposed a change to all-wooden bats in 2013, but it remains to be seen if the rule will actually be implemented.

These are the specifications for legal bats for the 2011 Legion season, as explained by Regional Director Jim McKee:
* All BCOR-certified bats are legal * All BESR-certified bats are legal UNLESS they say "composite" on barrel or handle * ALL wooden bats are legal * There is no exception list as there has been in high school baseball this year. * When purchasing bats, keep in mind that BESR-certified bats will NOT be legal after the current season.
League umpires will inspect equipment before each game and managers are asked to have it ready for review. The penalty for use of an illegal bat is an out and an ejection of the player involved. |
