I'm skeptical about this too. By rule, the only way you have this option available to you is that you've ruled this either failure to remove illegal equipment (which I thought meant take it out of the game not dugout) or to rule this minor unsporting conduct. I don't think it's unsporting conduct but if it is it seems serious enough that telling him to go sit by the illegal equipment seems off.
Finally, I don't see how he can attend the plate meeting, you restricted him to the dugout.  |
Not my rules, something I read. Someone might be applying college rules to high school.
