The media report states "The Chattooga player had taken his helmet off and tossed it away before he reached home plate, and that is a violation of Georgia High School Association rules. So while the first run counted, the batter was ruled out by the umpires after they’d gotten together for a meeting."
Now I know we media folks don't always get things right. As a youth soccer referee, I give the benefit of the doubt to the officials if I can't quote the rule. Is it possible Georgia adjusted the rule so it is an out? Or do they have to go strictly by the NFHS rules? Any Georgia umpires care to chime in?
