1 PIAA OFFICIALS STAFF: Dr. Robert A. Lombardi Associate Executive Director Anita L. Fox Chapters Secretary Debrah J. Rosenberger Officials Secretary Cathy M. Good Office Assistant PIAA EXECUTIVE STAFF: Bradley R. Cashman Executive Director Melissa N. Mertz Assistant Executive Director Mark E. Byers Assistant Executive Director RULES, REVISIONS, AND INTERPRETATIONS PIAA Statewide Rules Interpreter: Martin Ondrovic 2012 NFHS BASEBALL RULE CHANGES 1-3-2d Clarified the allowable size and usage of the Batted Ball Coefficient of Restitution (BBCOR) mark. Rationale: With the new standard of identifying legal bats, it eliminated the responsibility of the pre-game equipment check. Note: Any bat that is (Not A Single Piece Of Wood) must meet the BBCOR standard and must be properly marked with the BBCOR logo. The logo must be (one-inch rectangular and located on the barrel of the bat in any contrasting color to read BBCOR *50). No aluminum or composite bat without the BBCOR logo is legal beginning Jan. 1, If the bat should have both BESR and BBCOR logos, the bat is legal. Modified the restrictions of intentionally altering the temperatures of the bat. Rationale: Manipulating the bat from its (original manufactured condition) is a federal offense. Not only is it illegal but it can cause injury or worse to a young person Clarified how state associations may provide reasonable accommodations. Rationale: Each state association may, in keeping with applicable laws, authorize exceptions to NFHS playing rules to provide reasonable accommodations to individual participants with disabilities and/or special needs as well as those individuals with unique and extenuating circumstances.
2 Page NFHS BASEBALL RULE CHANGES (cont d) Clarified that the umpire is responsible for resolving any compliant equipment issues. Rationale: The umpires have sole authority in resolving any question pertaining to any legality about playing equipment or protective items used by players while participating Clarified that any amount of blood found on a player s equipment or uniform requires immediate attention. Rationale: Changing the word any from excessive removes the subjectivity of how much blood is considered excessive g7 Modified the coaching decorum rule for post-game incidents. Rationale: Previously, there was no rule or penalty since the umpires jurisdiction ended when the umpires left the field q Clarified where a player s location should be during a fight or physical confrontation. Rationale: Previously, a player had to be considered leaving for the purpose of fighting, meaning coaches could argue that the player was going out to break up a fight, not actually participate in a fight a-b Clarified the coach s responsibility for compliant equipment used in a game. Rationale: The result of the rule change means that umpires will no longer be required to do pre-game equipment checks c Clarified the time allowance for relief pitcher s warming up. Exception Rationale: While it has been standard that a pitcher has one minute to complete his warm up throws to start an inning, there was no time limit in the rules for when a relief pitcher came in during an inning Clarified the game officials administrative responsibilities. Rationale: State associations may intercede in the event of unusual incidents after the umpire jurisdiction has ended. Modified the officials responsibility regarding pre-game equipment checks Rationale: Along with asking coaches if their players are properly and legally equipped, umpires will now verify with coaches that all of their equipment (bats, batting helmets, and catcher s helmet is legal). Meaning, equipped with bats that are unaltered from the original Manufacturer s design and production and helmets that meet NFHS and NOCSAE standards and are free of cracks or damage or tape. However, coaches can still ask the umpires at pre-game conference to do an equipment check. RIP-IT BATS NFHS has had discussions with the Rip-It management group about a bat issue and an agreement was made with NFHS to permit their bats to be allowed in high school competition. Please share this information that the Rip-It bats with the BBCOR.50 certification mark on the taper of the bat instead of the barrel is compliant with NFHS baseball rules due to an administrative remedy.
3 2012 NFHS MINOR EDITORIAL RULE CHANGES 8-4-1e: The batter-runner is out when a third strike is caught by the catcher; or the third strike is not caught with first base occupied and there are lee than two outs (2-16-2). Dead Ball and Delayed Dead Ball Table: Pages 35 and 36 NFHS Baseball Rules Book. POINTS OF EMPHASIS The NFHS Baseball Rules Committee and the NFHS Board of Directors believes there are areas of the game of interscholastic baseball that need to be addressed and given special attention. These areas of concern are often cyclical, some areas need more attention than others, and that is why they might appear in the rules book for consecutive editions. These concerns are identified as "Points of Emphasis." For the 2012 high school baseball season, attention is being called to: coach's responsibility, altering bats, pace of the game, and good sporting behavior. When a topic is included in the Points of Emphasis, these topics are important enough to reinforce or they are not being given the proper attention. COACH'S RESPONSIBILITY: The role of the head coach is not only very prominent in the community but bears tremendous responsibility. As highlighted in this year's rules changes, the head coach is responsible for being a teacher, role model and mentor. He is required to know and verify that each team member is properly attired and has equipment that meets the standards set by NFHS rules. Besides being the only coac~1 responsible for communications with umpires, he is responsible for appropriate behaviormodeling before, during and after a contest. Everyone involved understands the importance of the role of the coach and the awesome opportunity he has to teach life lessons to willing and capable young people. ALTERING OF BATS: Altering bats by such methods as rolling, shaving the bat wall, flattening or otherwise manipulating the bat from its original manufactured condition is a federal offense. Not only is it illegal but it can cause injury or worse to a young person. There is a national campaign on not cheating by altering bats in collaboration with the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association (SGMA) and the NFHS. In addition, coaches must diligently monitor the condition of the bats and other equipment that is being used by members of the team. Coaches must ensure that bats purchased for the 2012 season meet the new Batted Ball Coefficient of Restitution performance standard (BBCOR). Due to the fact that many players (and parents) purchase their own bats, it is critical that coaches inform players and parents of the upcoming rule change. Coaches must insist that players use only legal equipment not only because it is a rule, but it is in the best interest of the principles of fair play and sportsmanship. PACE OF GAME PLAY: The committee is concerned that long delays in game action detract from what otherwise is an exciting and enjoyable game. There are several rules that need to be enforced more consistently. In particular, the batter's box rule (the batter must generally keep one foot in the box during an atbat), handling offensive and defensive charged conferences in a timely manner, and speeding the time between innings Page 3
4 Page 4 POINTS OF EMPHASIS (cont d) and during pitching changes by umpires diligently counting the number of warm-up pitches are areas the committee identified as areas in need of improvement. GOOD SPORTING BEHAVIOR: Coaches and umpires must work together. Each contest is another opportunity for coaches and umpires to teach not only baseball skills, but also model respectful behavior as well as professional relationships. The positive values that are learned will serve the players long after their baseball experience has concluded. Game situations typically provide a coach the opportunity to identify a teachable moment to reinforce good sporting behavior. PIAA ADOPTIONS AND MODIFICATIONS Adopt the 2012 NFHS Baseball Rules Book.

6 Page 6 OFFICIALS UNIFORM 1. The PIAA Official's Emblem must be worn on the upper left sleeve of the official's standard shirt when officiating in all PIAA sponsored games. 2. All PIAA-registered officials must wear identical uniforms during a contest. 3. Required uniform for Baseball umpires: Shirt One of the following shirts is to be worn: (1) Navy blue pullover with red and white stripe trim on sleeves and collar. (2) Light blue pullover with navy blue and gray stripe trim on the sleeves and collar with the standard buttons (No zipper style shirts permitted.) The pullover style shirt shall only be of a micromesh material. (The silk / shiny dazzle type material is not approved). Long Sleeve shirt is now approved. Undershirt Navy Blue - All umpires must wear the same color undershirt during the game. Slacks Gray only - Shorts are NOT permitted. Ball Bag Navy Blue only. Socks Black - Footies are NOT permitted.

Jewelry Umpires are NOT permitted to wear jewelry, with the exception of your wedding band and a Medical Alert Bracelet or Necklace while umpiring. The restrictions that pertain to a player for a Medical Alert Bracelet of Necklace also pertain to umpires. PIAA sports' officials may display an American flag (maximum size 2 by 3 inches) on the right sleeve of their uniform shirt approximately three inches down from the shoulder seam. This will be the same position the PIAA official patch is displayed on the left sleeve.
7 COMMON SENSE OFFICIATING With all the dialogue of concussions and the prevention of injuries, officials are requested to use prudent judgment in the handling of players who appear injured during playing action. If a player exhibits any signs of a concussion, or is injured in any manner, officials should do their due diligence in requesting the team s coaching staff or team medical personnel evaluate the player(s) involved. This is priority communication between the officials and the coaching staff. Please ensure that any player who appears injured must be evaluated by the team s medical personnel. Safety of players is priority one and before we remove any player from a contest, make sure the team s medical personnel are involved with the decision making. FITNESS AND HEALTH CONDITION Athletic officiating is a vigorous avocation and it demands that an official be in excellent physical condition, able to give the very best, on every play, in every contest. To that end, the American Medical Association has stated that before one attempts any vigorous physical activity they should first visit their family physician for a check-up. It is part of good personal health maintenance to have an annual physical exam and participate in an exercise program. This type of exercise program should be minimally three days per week and include cardiovascular conditioning, strength training, flexibility and muscle endurance. These components along with proper nutrition will assist in developing one's optimum body composition. The PIAA Sports Medicine Committee recommends that each registered sports official have an annual physical examination and practice good health habits. Being physically fit and conveying an appropriate, positive image through proper health and nutrition habits will greatly assist all officials in keeping up with the game. After all, the game, the schools, players, coaches, spectators and fellow officials deserve no less. As importantly, officials owe good health habits to themselves and their families if for nothing more, than the health of it. If officials have any chronic health condition, officials are requested to share this information with on site medical personnel at their contest(s). If you are in need of updating your officiating supplies, please be reminded that Officially Sports is the official vendor of PIAA Sport Officials Uniforms. Please give them your consideration for any purchases regarding officials supplies. If interested, you may provide them with your address to send you their catalog, seasonal specials and discounted items that may be of interest and service to your avocation of sports officiating. Officially Sports may be contacted via at mjsumpref@aol.com, by calling or at Page 7
8 Page 8 PIAA BY-LAWS: ARTICLE XIII, SECTION 8 Any coach and/or contestant who, while coaching or competing for a PIAA member school, is ejected from a Contest by a state high school association recognized and/or registered official in that sport for unsportsmanlike conduct or flagrant misconduct shall be disqualified from coaching and/or participating for the remainder of the day and in all Contests on the next Contest day of the same level (varsity, junior varsity, or otherwise) of competition. For a coach, participation in the next Contest includes any contact by the coach with members of the Team, including other coaches, between the time that the Team arrives at the Contest site and the conclusion of the last Contest of the day. The Principal shall direct the coach not to attend all of the Contest(s). Any coach and/or contestant ejected from the last Contest in that sport in a sport season shall be disqualified from coaching and/or participating in the first Contest(s) in that sport in the subsequent sport season, at the same level (varsity, junior varsity, or otherwise) of competition, at any PIAA member school or, if the student changes levels of competition, such as from junior varsity to varsity, the first Contest(s) in that sport. The official shall file a report with the PIAA Office on the form prescribed for the sport involved, within twenty-four (24) hours following the completion of the Contest in which the ejection occurred. Failure to file such report shall not affect the validity or consequences of the ejection. In baseball, the athletic director and principal must meet with the ejected coach/ contestant and detail in a report what corrective action has been taken. This report then must be signed by all parties and sent to the district baseball chairperson. This form is located on the PIAA website on the baseball page. When a coach or contestant is disqualified/ ejected from a Regular or Post-Regular Season Contest a report must be filed by the official who disqualified/ejected the coach or contestant. When the report is received in the PIAA Office it is faxed to the concerned school Principal and Athletic Director and mailed to the respective District Chairmen, officials representatives and sportsmanship chair. A copy is also given to the Associate Executive Director and placed in the school s file. OFFICIALS ARE TO FILE A REPORT WITH THE PIAA OFFICE ON THE APPROPRIATE FORM WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE EJECTION OR THEY MAY BE PLACED ON PRO- BATION. Officials may complete the disqualification form online through the officials information area of the PIAA website. Additionally, officials may or fax a downloaded copy of the disqualification form. Officials who repeatedly do not file the proper form in the prescribed time period may be suspended.
9 EXAMPLES OF DISQUALIFICA- TION PROVISION OF ARTICLE XIII, SECTION 8 The following examples are for players or coaches and are only examples and not a complete list. What this means is a player or coach ejected from a contest at any level must sit out the remainder of the day and the next day of the next contest at that level. Example #1: Player/coach gets ejected from a junior varsity contest before a varsity contest. This player/coach gets disqualified for the remainder of the day and the next day of the next junior varsity contest. If this contest is followed by a varsity contest on the same day, the player/coach gets disqualified for the varsity contest also (the whole day). Example #2: Player/coach gets ejected from a varsity contest on Friday, the team s next varsity contest is Friday. Before the varsity contest is a scheduled junior varsity contest, player/coach cannot participate in any of Friday contests. Example #3: Player/coach gets ejected from a varsity football game Saturday. The next varsity contest is a game on next Friday but the game gets postponed to Saturday. On Saturday, the junior varsity team is to play in another football game, is player and/or coach eligible to participate in the junior varsity game? Ruling: No. Since the Friday contest was postponed the next varsity game is the same day as the junior varsity game and the player/coach are not eligible to participate the whole day. GUIDELINES ON HANDLING CONTESTS DURING The purpose of these guidelines is to provide a default policy to those responsible for making decisions concerning the suspension and restarting of contests based on the presence of lightning. The preferred sources from which to request such a policy for your facility would include your state high school association and the nearest office of the National Weather Service. Proactive Planning 1. Assign staff to monitor local weather conditions before and during events. 2. Develop an evacuation plan, including identification of appropriate nearby shelter. 3. Develop criteria for suspension and resumption of play. When thunder is heard, or a cloud -to-ground lightning bolt is seen, the thunderstorm is close enough to strike your location with lightning. Suspend play and take shelter immediately. Thirty-minute rule. Once play has been suspended, wait at least 30 minutes after the last thunder is heard or flash of lightning is witnessed prior to resuming play. Any subsequent thunder or lightning after the beginning of the 30 -minute count, reset the clock and another 30-minute count should begin. 4. Hold periodic reviews for appropriate personnel.

10 Page 10 PIAA SPORTSMANSHIP MESSAGE ALL OFFICIALS MUST READ THIS MESSAGE TO CAPTAINS AND HEAD COACHES PRIOR TO GAMES AT ALL LEVELS. PIAA requires all registered sports' officials to enforce the sportsmanship rules for coaches and contestants. Actions meant to demean opposing contestants, team, spectators, and officials are not in the highest ideals of interscholastic education and will not be tolerated. Let today's contest reflect mutual respect. Coaches please certify to the officials that your players are legally equipped and uniformed according to NFHS rules and PIAA adoptions. Good luck in today's contest. For distribution purposes, this message is printed on the back of all PIAA registered sports officials' identification cards. Chapter interpreters are requested to remind all officials to read this message at each contest they officiate. There have been some concerns addressed by the schools that some of our officials are not reading the PIAA Sportsmanship message prior to the contest. This is an improper procedure and this message MUST be read. Officials are not to paraphrase, modify, or develop their own Sportsmanship Message to the captains and head coaches. The proper procedure is head coaches and captains MUST attend the pre-game reading of the sportsmanship message. This message MUST BE READ VER- BATIM by the contest officials. Coaches must certify to the contest officials their team is legally equipped and in compliance with NFHS Baseball Rules. The reading of this message will set the tone for the contest to be played in the spirit of good sportsmanship and have the coaches verbally confirm aloud their teams' adherence to compliance with equipment and safety rules. This confirmation is not only the adherence to contest rules, but also assists in alleviating the legal liability concerns for the officials if the teams subsequently violate the proper equipment provisions of the contest rules. For the school year, American Specialty Insurance Services will provide the following benefits: One Million Dollars of Liability Coverage; $25,000 Excess Accident Medical Coverage (with a $250 deductible); $5,000 Accidental Death and Dismemberment (including a cardiac benefit). This program is administered by American Specialty Insurance Services and underwritten by USF&G and Mutual of Omaha. Both carriers carry A ratings by A.M. Best. Again this year, as a new service for chapters, all regularly scheduled chapter PIAA OFFICIALS INSURANCE meetings will be covered under PIAA s basic liability coverage. This is a major change from the past when only the annual rules interpretation meetings have been covered. Chapters are requested to please submit their list of regularly scheduled chapter meetings to the PIAA Office to assist procedurally in the exchange of information to have all local associations meetings covered.

11 COMMUNICABLE DISEASE AND SKIN INFECTION PROCEDURES Proper precautions are needed to minimize the potential risk of the spread of communicable disease and skin infections during athletic competition. These conditions include skin infections that occur due to skin contact with competitors and equipment. The transmission of infections such as Methicillin- Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Herpes Gladiatorum, blood-borne pathogens such as HIV and Hepatitis B, and other infectious diseases such as Influenza can often be greatly reduced through proper hygiene. The NFHS SMAC has outlined and listed below some general guidelines for the prevention of the spread of these diseases. UNIVERSAL HYGIENE PROTOCOL FOR ALL SPORTS Shower immediately after every competition and practice. Wash all workout clothing after each practice. Wash personal gear (knee pads and braces) weekly. Do not share towels or personal hygiene products (razors) with others. Refrain from full body (chest, arms, abdomen) cosmetic shaving. INFECTIOUS SKIN DISEASES Strategies for reducing the potential exposure to these infectious agents include: Athletes must be told to notify a parent or guardian, athletic trainer and coach of any skin lesion prior to any competition or practice. An appropriate health-care professional should evaluate any skin lesion before returning to competition. If an outbreak occurs on a team, especially in a contact sport, all team members should be evaluated to help prevent the potential spread of infection. Coaches, officials and appropriate heath-care professionals must follow NFHS or state/local guidelines on time until return to competition. Participation with a covered lesion may be considered if in accordance with NFHS, state or lock guidelines and the lesion is no longer contagious. BLOOD-BORNE INFECTIOUS DISEASE Strategies for reducing the potential exposure to these agents include following Universal Precautions such as: An athlete who is bleeding, has an open wound, has any amount of blood on his/her uniform, or has blood on his/her person, shall be directed to leave the activity (game or practice) until the bleeding is stopped, the wound is covered, the uniform and/or body is appropriately cleaned, and/or the uniform is changed before returning to activity. Athletic trainers or other caregivers need to wear gloves and take other precautions to prevent blood or body fluid-splash from contaminating themselves or others. In the event of a blood or body fluid-splash, immediately wash contaminated skin or mucous membranes with soap and water. Clean all contaminated surfaces and equipment with disinfectant before returning to competition. Be sure to use gloves when cleaning. Any blood exposure or bites to the skin that break the surface must be reported and immediately evaluated by an appropriate health-care professional. OTHER COMMUICABLE DISEASES Means of reducing the potential exposure to these agents include: Appropriate vaccination of athletes, coaches and staff as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). During time of outbreaks, follow the guidelines set forth by the CDC as well as State and local Health Departments. For more detailed information, refer to the Infectious Disease and Blood-borne Pathogens and Skin Disorders sections contained in the NFHS Sports Medicine Handbook. Page 11
