SOME CHANGES FOR 2014!

New Board Member:
Jim O'Dwyer has resigned as a director since he can't play this season.
Steve Fritton has been appointed by the board to fill that position.

Rule Changes:
(These may not be all the rule changes, just the ones discussed at the meeting.)

1. Balls -
We will use only the large (12") ball this year.
There will be no small ball for the ladies.

2. Courtesy Runner -
Any player in the game may be used as a courtesy runner;
However!
a) each player may be used as a courtesy runner only once per inning
b) the courtesy runner, may advance only one base during the next play.
c) if a courtesy runner is caught on base when there turn to bat comes up, an out will be recorded.


3. Teams without a Short Stop will be allowed to pick up a shortstop even if they have enough male players.
As in the past, teams without an "experienced pitcher" may pick up a pitcher
regardless of how many male players they have for the game.

4. For the extra inning to resolve a tied game, there will not be a runner placed on second base.
In lieu of the international tie breaker inning, we will simply play one regular inning with a
three run limit per team.
