I have have two questions that came up in our games this weekened - 12U Rec, using NFSHSA rules, if that makes a difference.
1. A pitcher was starting with her right foot on the rubber near the left end (firstbase side) and her left foot was behind the rubber but outside the end of it. Is this legal, or do both feet need to be within the edges of the rubber?
2. There was a play at home on a wild pitch. The ump called the runner out saying that the batter interfered with the play and did not make enough of an effort to move out of the way. It was clearly no intent by the batter to interfere. What is the batter's responsibility in this situation?
Thanks.
