Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred says the torpedo bat is \"absolutely good for baseball\" after it rose to prominence last week following a battery of home runs by the New York Yankees.
\"I believe that issues like the torpedo bat and the debate around it demonstrate the fact that baseball still occupies a unique place in our culture,\" Manfred told The New York Times in a Q&A published Sunday, \"because people get into a complete frenzy over something that\'s really nothing at the end of the day. The bats comply with the rules.\"
