Were it not for the sound, I suppose it would constitute the perfect "corked" bat.... "They" have already gone to graphite and such. What's lost in the whole discussion here is: Who corked Sammy's bat, what did they use for a "cork", and how exactly did they **** up? I would like to know how it was done as well. The cork was right above the handle. Was it put in from the top or bottom? How big a piece? Is it easy to cork a bat? Doesn't it make it weaker? Usually they use a painted bat so disguising it won't be as much of a problem: http://www.ajc.com/sports/content/sp...corkchart.html http://www.newsday.com/sports/baseba...25473.graphic? coll=ny-sports-headlines Robert Adair's reasoning why it doesn't work: http://www.southlakebaseball.org/physics.htm |
