It is applicable to baseball bats of any construction or material. The method provides a quantitative measure of bat dynamic performance that may be used for comparison purposes.1.2 The BBCOR, BPF, BESR, and BBS are calculated from measurements taken in the laboratory on test equipment meeting the requirements defined in this specification.1.3 The values stated in English units are to be regarded as the standard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use.
