Suggested rule change: The infield fly rule should be for Juniors, Seniors, and Big League only. Leads, pick off attemps, balks, and advancement on uncaught...
I disagree. At that age you will always get the kid who drops the ball and lose the guaranteed out. And on the offensive side, it should be the coaches'...

I strongly disagree. One of the local non-LL leagues has a rule that the IFR doesn't apply under Bronco. That's led to some managers actually teaching players...
Without the IFF, you're basically giving managers a reason to tell their kids to cheat. Then when they get up to the higher level, they're heads will all be...

Agreed. I hear some people complain that he cannot do that but he can. Your interpretation is exactly the same conclusion as I come up with...he is faking...

This is a balk. Although he can feint to third, he must step toward the base. Since the pitcher did not step, balk. Mike [Non-text portions of this message...
Well, you can't feint to ANY base without first stepping, and if it's to 1B, stepping AND throwing. So, if the umpire judged that the shoulder turn towards 3B...
That's what I saw... of course the team (coaches, players, fans) didn't see it that way. Of course the team also wanted me to call a balk on the pitcher for...
