Something happened this weekend that I've never seen before. And I think I know the answer, but will ask anyway.
Opposing coach had sufficient girls to field a full team. However, for the first inning the opposition only fielded 6 players in the infield, no outfield. (The rest sat in the dugout as apparently some form of punishment)
I asked the umpire if this was against the rules and he stated he didn't know. Of course, I did not know either.
We wouldn't have called them on it, but it became a curiousity nontheless.
