| March 14, 2018 fisherman 26 posts | replacing bat caps bat cap split is there any legal way to replace it |
| March 14, 2018 grayhitter59 Men's 60 345 posts | Yes, buy a new cap from same manufature as bat and replace with 3M 5200, let set for 72 hours prior to hitting. Will be fine. |
| March 14, 2018 titanhd Men's 60 638 posts | I don't know of any Bat Manufacturer that will sell you an endcap. |

| March 14, 2018 fisherman 26 posts | player on differ team needs help,ill see him Fridays game will find out |
| March 14, 2018 OMD 38 posts | Check EBay - have just about every brand and style available. They looked close to me but didn't read if they were "factory" replacement or some knock off - so check carefully - don't want to get anybody in trouble with non sanctioned equipment. And before anybody says anything or ASSumes anything - NO! LOL!) I have never bought one! I saw a couple when looking for a bat. |
| March 15, 2018 grayhitter59 Men's 60 345 posts | Titan, never said from, they are all over eBay, need to have the manufactor logo same as bat. on eBay they sell just about every brand out there, point don't buy a combat end for a Reebok. |
| March 15, 2018 DaveDowell Men's 70 4312 posts | If it were me in this circumstance, instead of a "..player on a differ[ent] team..", it might be a good idea for him to perform this repair in the presence of a Tournament/League Director ... There's no "downside" to having a verifiable witness to what was actually done ... As a general theory, more questions arise than are answered when the cap comes off/breaks ... Proceed with caution and good luck ... |
| March 15, 2018 fisherman 26 posts | dave this isn't a (doc I have a friend who has this problem) I really am trying to help someone else, if it was me I wouldn't need to wait till friday to find out what kind of bat it is I always wanted to play on a championship team and now that I am I would never do anything to cause me or my team any problems |
| March 15, 2018 DaveDowell Men's 70 4312 posts | fisherman ... I believe YOU, but there's always that potential element of the unknown when it's coming from somewhere down the line! ... No bad inference was intended, just (hopefully) sound advice in case what he told you may not be totally true! ... You're doing the right thing in trying to help him with a simple repair ... Thanks! |

Understand that they are under no obligation to do so, but I wouldn't be surprised if they had you send the bat to them and they offer to replace the end cap for no charge. Obviously, if they agree to do it, it would cost you the shipping fees to get the bat to them. But they might even pay for the return shipping back to you. I have had great experiences with Demarini and Miken - never dealt with any of the others. Demarini did this exact thing for me about 7 or 8 years ago. |
