Don't know a lot about Indoor Baseball, but here are 2 views of an Indoor Baseball bat that I have in my collection. It is a Ty Cobb Brand. The label Has "W.B. Jarvis Company, Ty Cobb in script, INDOOR in larger letters. The bat is 33" long, Handle 1" width and barrel is 2" width.

Some background, Ty Cobb was owner of W.B. Jarvis Sporting Goods, company was started about 1913 and lasted a few years. Stores in Detroit on Woodward Ave and Grand Rapids on Monroe ave. I have an original catalog for the company with Baseball, Golf, Tennis, croquet, Bar Bells, Medicine balls, football, bicycle, pogo sticks and lots of clothing and equipment.
