Return To Baseball FAQ Archive   Search the Archives What are bats made of? Answered By Bob Hanneck, Editor Usually, baseball bats are made of wood. Most wooden bats are made from ash wood. Other woods used for making baseball bats are hickory, maple and bamboo. For professional baseball, only wooden bats are permitted. They are not allowed to be corked or bat that is filled with a light substance such as cork which reduces the weight without costing greatly in hitting power. For amateur baseball, both wood and metal alloy bats are permitted. --- permission must be obtained from editor Bob Hanneck to re-publish --- keywords: Baseball | Softball | MLB | Major League Baseball Backyard Baseball
