ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to baseball equipment, and more particularly to a baseball bat and a baseball which are provided with an audible signal generating element. A hollow tube is positioned in the baseball bat and in the baseball, the hollow tube receiving a sliding element which moves between opposite ends of the tube as the baseball bat and baseball move through the air. A spring mounted in each of the opposite ends of the tube facilitates movement of the sliding element inside the tube as it bounces off the springs. When air is admitted into the hollow tube through a fittingly engaged plug, the audible signal is enhanced.
