well it is proven that metal bats, hit the ball harder, and faster then wood, on the same pitch. but the vibration of the bat (metal) is to hard on the player, and could cause injury to that player. also faster ball speeds off the bat also mean, more of a danger to the pitcher, and other players (not that a pitcher is gets hit by a come backer every game
)
long story short, nothing wrong with wood. nothing wrong with the game, just something wrong with the media :roll:
