Does anybody have the link to tournament website/results?

http://www.eastcountysports.com/main/20 ... ball.shtml has a good daily recap of previous night's action...including a total umpire/tournament committee cluster$%^&& last night in a game that featured two future D1 pitchers...

Thanks 4 link! So the Warning given 4 batting out of order was correct according to the follow up to the article on the El Capitan game? Is there a change n the NFHS rules about batting out of order

This situation actually happened to DD's team last year. DD's assistant coach saw an illegal substitution violation in the last inning and held it until the end of the game (somehow expecting the blues to award the game to DD's team). The blues informed her that the rule had changed in 2012 and that a warning was the "penalty" for the first offense.

I guess coaches need to crack the spine on the rule book every now and then too, not just the blues.

Wow that is crazy! Last time I did high school was in 2011, so i was not aware of that change . Saw situation last year 2012 where appeal made on batting out of order and batter was called out vs warning.

So what if the girl gets a hit before the other team realizes she was out of order? Does it stand?

So an aggressive coach could plan on trying that at least once per game with no penalty.

Doesn't seem like a good rule change.

Just got the word - Friday games are cancelled - hopefully they'll get to finish the tournament this weekend...

Great job to Escondido high school for getting Kit Carson playable today.
For those that have been asking about Great Oak their a very good team.
