Hi, James. A lower drop number for a baseball bat means it's a heavier bat; a higher number translates into a lighter bat. So, a lower drop number doesn't necessarily mean a better bat, but--depending on the player--a higher drop number could lead to more extra base hits and homeruns. Hope that helps.
Each side of each bumper will need a piece 62x12. If you must have the fabric in a single strip, then you'll need 62 of fabric at least 48 wide, so buy a minimum of 1 3/4 yards. If the fabric is narrower than 48, then you'll need 3.5 yards. If you want bumpers for the head and foot, you'll need a total of 4 additional pieces, headboard width + 2x12.
