That should be it. No other wording is necessary. HOWEVER, as we all experience on this and many other boards, people like to insert their own beliefs based on some source outside the game of ASA softball.

I really had no difficulty with the first sentence and do not intend to belabor the point...BUT...that second sentence, although crystal clear in my mind at this time, does tend to add unnecessary ambiguity to the rule.

I wasn't referring to you as own of those with their own beliefs. However, even on here, we ocassionally run across someone who still believes certain baseball rules apply to all games involving a bat and ball.

That is until they are converted
