14U ASA - what is the proper way to switch from L/R or R/L during the at bat? In front or plate/catcher/umpire? Does it matter if a runner is on or not?
Anytime the pitcher has not taken her place on the pitching plate is ok. If the batter crosses the plate while the pitcher is in this position, she is out. Personally, I would either call time to be sure or wait for a foul ball and switch before the pitcher gets the ball back.
