My daughter has batting practice at 9:00 Saturday morning and the temps are gonna be in the 50's.. She doesn't have a back up bat for cold weather.. Should I be concerned about cracking the bat?? The coach has tennis balls that we could use instead of softballs.. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks..

Soft toss or full speed? How old is your DD?
She's 9yrs old.. She will be doing front toss With the coach behind the net.. The balls wont be very fast..

At that age there won't be any danger to the bats at that temperature. Especially with soft toss. Metal bats on the other hand would be more susceptible to cracking; but not that much at risk even.
Thanks for the info.. I'm gonna take the advice..I'm gonna check out the bat sleeve also. Thanks
