Eighteen inches max. According to MLB Rule 1.10(c): " (c) The bat handle, for not more than 18 inches from its end, may be covered or treated with any material or substance to improve the grip. Any such material or substance, which extends past the 18 inch limitation, shall cause the bat to be removed from the game. "

How do i Put pine tar on baseball bats?

You want a very light layer on the handle. It is wise to put a more hefty layer either on your helmet or on the top (barrel end) of the handle to use when the pine tar already on the bat wears off. Most pine tar is either in a stick that you rub on like chap stick, or in liquid form on a rag, which you rub on as well.


What do you call the top portion of the bat?

Well, I guess that depends on what side of the bat is up when you call it the top. Starting at the fat end of the bat, that is just called the Tip. Then the rest of the fat part of the bat is called the Barrel. Then it tapers down to the Handle. Around the handle is the Grip. Then at the very end, the part that stops your hands from sliding off of the bat is called the Knob.
