There has always been "cheating", always will be. If they want a sport where people don't cheat, try an honorable sport like Golf...just maybe not with Daly, Tiger, or Sergio, or....

Not sure, that bat has been around a while, someone could have modified it after. Not defending, just wondering if it was ever used in a game?
