Length Compatible In-Game Bat Protection Case

A length compatible in-game protection case, the case consisting of:

• an elongated housing defined by a tubular configuration a clamshell design, a hinge side, and a pair of cooperating longitudinal edges that detachably couple together through a snap closure and a slot, the housing further defined by an outer surface, an inner surface, a closed end, and an opposite open end,
• whereby the housing is dimensioned to encase a bat;
• a hinge disposed lengthwise along the hinge side, whereby the housing hingedly opens and closes in a lengthwise direction;
• a cap configured to detachably attach to the open end of the housing;
• a pliable panel configured to overlay the inner surface of the housing;
• a series of spaced-apart ridges extending along the length of the panel, each ridge defined by an indicia indicating a discrete length of the bat;
• a spacer detachably fitted into one of the series of spaced-apart ridges;
• a shoulder strap;
• and
• a pair of carabiners, the carabiners attachable to the outer surface of the housing and the shoulder strap.

A method for affixed positional storage of a bat, the method comprising:

• providing a case defined by an elongated housing having a clamshell design, a hinge side, and a pair of cooperating longitudinal edges that detachably couple together through a male fastener and a female fastener, the housing further defined by an outer surface, an inner surface, a closed end, and an opposite open end;
• hingedly opening the housing along the hinge side;
• positioning a bat inside the housing oriented such that a top end of the bat faces the closed end of the housing, and a handle end of the bat faces the open end of the housing;
• axially displacing the bat along a series of spaced-apart ridges extending along the length of the inner surface of the housing;
• fitting a spacer at one of the spacers in alignment with the top end of the bat, such that the handle end of the bat is accessible from the open end of the housing without requiring the housing to be fully opened;
• closing the housing along the hinge side, whereby the male fastener and the female fastener of the longitudinal edges engage;
• affixing a cap on the open end of the housing, whereby the bat is stored and carried;
• removing the cap from the open end of the housing;
• and
• pulling the handle end of the bat, so as to remove the bat from the housing, whereby the spacer positons the handle end of the bat to be accessible through the open end of the housing without opening the housing along the hinge side.
