The starting pitcher can return once as a pitcher after being removed as the pitcher. No other pitcher may return to that position once removed. e.f. Bat Throwing 1. A team warning will be issued to the coach after the first incident of a player throwing a bat either intentionally or unintentionally. 2. The second incident will automatically result in an out to the player who threw the bat. 3. All subsequent incidents will result in an out to the player who throws the bat and an automatic ejection from the game. The conduct ejection rule (Section IV(B) does not apply in this case, unless, in the opinion of the umpire, the incident was done with malicious intent. The injected player batting position is an automatic out. h. No jewelry is to be worn by any player. i. The players must wear the same number the entire season. If a team has more than one jersey, the same number must be used on all jerseys of that player. j. A player must play at least in 50% of the regulator season games to be eligible for post season tournaments. Players injured during the season shall not be subject to this rule as long as the coach makes the league aware of the injury at the time of the injury. 5. Game Rules a.

The runner intentionally interferes with a throw or thrown ball.

4 c. Charged Time Outs One trip to the mound is allowed per pitcher per inning. A second trip to the same pitcher in the same inning requires removing the pitcher from the pitcher position. d. Obstruction Obstruction will be called when a fielder without possession of the ball denies access to the base the runner is attempting to achieve. Example 1 There is play at the plate and the catch blocks the plate in possession and control of the ball, then this is not obstruction.

The first baseman drops to a knee and completely blocks the runner access to the base before the ball arrives. The first baseman is guilty of obstruction. e. Fielder Interference If the runner interferes with the defense physically or by yelling at the fielders during a play on the ball, the runner shall be called out and runners shall be held at their current position.

Awarding of Points The winning team or winner by forfeit will be awarded two (2) points and the losing team will be awarded zero (0) points. In the event of a tie, each team will receive one (1) point.

If a tie still exists between two or more teams, head to head matchups are the first tiebreaker, and runs scored against is the second tie-brreaker.. If a tie still exists, a coin toss will decide the winner. If an unequal number of games are played, the League Director makes the final ruling. 7. Forfeits A forfeit will occur if a. a team cannot field at least eight (8) players. b. a team does not play all players eligible for that day s game, as stated in Section J. c. a pitcher violates the pitching rules stated in Section M. d. a team refuses to play a game after arriving at the field for any reason other than player or fan safety. e. a team uses a player listed on a travel, select or all-star team roster, or if a team uses any player ineligible to play. f. a player, coach, or fan that has been ejected from the game refuses to leave the field.
