Wheel head pin

I noticed while throwing this week (on the wheel that sits closest to the windows and faces the sinks) that the pin on the wheel head is pretty loose. I took off my bat and was wiping the clay when I noticed the pin itself was wobbly and could be lifted up and down. I checked the other pin and it seemed to be fine. This would explain why no amount of sticking was keeping my bat from jittering around. Is there anything that can be done to fix this? I just wanted to notify the right people!

Super good lesson here. Anyone who sees a problem with a piece of equipment should report it so that it can get fixed ASAP. This can be a piece of equipment from any area! I am so happy when this works! :slight_smile:
