minor issue only
i guess remove the edge tape
and fill the crack with glue ...use the thin super glue if its a very thin crack
if its a thick one then use a regular wooden glue
and then put a new tape

'tis but a scratch!

If you're worried about the life of the bat then cut that bit of tape, glue it with superglue and whack a slice of new tape over the existing stuff.

If you're all about the aesthetics, then take all the tape off, glue, sand and retape, but that seems like a lot of work for a minor ding.

Personally, I'd just ignore it...  If after another use, it spread, then I might put tape around the area where it is damaged.

That is absolutely nothing to worry about.
Just put some tape over it again. Maybe a bit of a sand for piece of mind, but otherwise fine.
