Sec. 15. The following rules will be used in the Girls 6 & Under and 8 & Under Coach
Pitch Program:
A. The Game will consist of 6 innings, with a “Run Rule” being declared if
a Team is ahead by 12 runs after 4 innings (3-1/2 if the Home Team is ahead),
or 8 runs after 5 innings (4-1/2 if the Home Team is ahead).

B. There will be no Infield Fly Rule in effect.

C. Each position in the batting order will be allowed at bat a maximum of once per inning. The end of an inning will be declared when either 3 outs are made or all Batters have batted one time.

D. Each Team will name a Coach to act as “Designated Pitcher” to pitch to
their Team.

E. The Designated Pitcher may be changed at any time during the Game as
long as another Coach takes that position, and the change is made without
excessive delay of the Game.

F. The designated Pitcher may carry a glove onto the field while pitching. It
is to be used for his own protection only.

G. While pitching, the Designated Pitcher may not coach his/her own Team
in any way. The Designated Pitcher may not distract the Defensive Players in
any way, either by action(s) or verbally. Violations of this rule will result in
the Designated Pitcher receiving one warning from the Umpire, and should a
second violation occur, he would be removed from the designated pitching
position for the remainder of the Game.

H. If the Designated Pitcher attempts to field/play the batted ball, or he is hit
by the batted ball before it passes a Fielder a dead ball will be declared, the
Batter Runner is called out, but the Runners may not advance.

I. Should the Designated Pitcher be hit by a thrown ball, the infraction constitutes
interference. All play stops, the ball is declared dead, the most
advanced Runner is called out, and remaining Base Runners must return to the
last base touched unless forced to advance.

J. Before any pitch is delivered, a Defensive Player must be positioned parallel
to the Pitcher’s Plate, to the left or right of the Designated Pitcher, maintaining
sufficient distance so not to interfere with the delivery of the pitch.
Neither this Defensive Player nor any other Defensive Player in the Game,
other than the Catcher, shall be positioned closer to Home Plate than the
Pitcher’s Plate. Any Defensive Player may move ahead of the pitcher’s plate
to field a ball once hit or thrown.

The Batter will be allowed 3 strikes or 5 pitches to hit the ball in fair territory.

If third strike results in a Foul Ball, the pitch is counted, but the Batter is not
out. After 3 strikes or 5 pitches, the Batter is out.

L. Any pitch that does not meet the minimum 3 feet from the point of
release requirement will be declared an ILLEGAL PITCH/DEAD BALL. The
pitch counts as one of their 5 pitches.

M. If the Teams are tied after 6 innings of play, they will begin the next
inning with the last Batter of the previous inning on second base and 2 outs.

Sec. 16. A Coach, Player, attendant, or bench personnel shall not use tobacco products
in any form in the confines of the playing field. PENALTY: The Umpire shall issue a
Team warning to the Team involved, any subsequent offenders on that Team shall be
ejected.

Sec. 17. All playing rules not specifically covered in
Rule 22 of this book shall be governed
by the other Rules as outlined in Rules 1 through 10 of this book.
