Re: [newenglandvintagebaseball] Player Subs

Hey Dan,
 
Great news about your first practice. We have been having practices for about a month now- they were supposed to be in the gym but it has been so nice out we have been outside for 3 weeks. I hope this weather stays.
 
As far as substitutions go I think it depends on who you play. The NEVBBL allows for free substitutions and for continuous batting orders if teams elect to do it. I know that having all 10 or 11 guys bat helps keep everyone there interested. The 1880's rules dont allow for substitutions, and I dont know how the 80's teams approach it, but Im sure its tough to tell a guy they have to sit out for the next 2 hours while everyone else plays.

Let me through this out there as a newcomer. What is allowed during
games with player substitutions. Is there open substitutions? Can
player come out and re-enter a few innings later in a different
batting order? Is re-entering allowed? If only 12 players show for a
game, can all 12 bat in the order? Is all this determined on a game-by
game basis?

By the way, the Wheelmen had their first practice today and we had a
blast. We will be ready!

Dan, Since there is no governing body or vintage league by-laws there really are no set standard of rules to go by. This can be good and this can also cause...

I agree with Chris. We are out there to have fun, so if we have 12 or so guys, we try to get everyone in at some point. This is one area that I think there...
