Corked bats will provide more power and are banned in MLB. Interestingly, MythBusters (the television program) found that corked bats perform worse than solid wood. It is possible that they missed some crucial controls.

There isn't an answer to your somewhat unspecific question. However, I presume that your question was driven by the publicity surrounding the issue of corking bats.

Mythbusters Episode 83 examined the issue of corking and established that corking bats reduces the distance the ball is hit. Players who believe it helps may be gaining a psychological advantage by using a corked bat, but no more than that.
