Does it matter where you have the label on a baseball bat?


I was taught in little league that you should always have the label facing you on a wooden bat, since the companies put the label where the wood is the weakest. For the most power and least chance of snapping the bat, you should hit the ball to the side of the label, since the grain is thickest there. But after talking to some friends, I have a doubt that this is just a myth.
Since it's the off-season, I can't watch the major leaguers to see if they keep the label facing the sun. But I do have a Sam Bat maple professional bat that supports my tee-ball coach's lesson. Just wondering if anyone can shed a little more light on this one.

Interesting question. I recently watched a short documentary on bats, and they discussed the exact method you did. New rules from the MLB competition committee, though, have attempted to change the location of the label. Forget where I saw that, though.
