Speaking ASA...
Rule 8...Section 10 A.
"The team at bat may use a courtesy runner for the pitcher and/or the catcher any time."
Speaking FED...
Rule 8...Section 9..Article 2...we have a new phrase this year as stated by CecilOne
"The pitcher or catcher must bat and reach base legally (or earn their way on base) in order to be eligible for a courtesy runner."
Looks like no courtesy runner with that description and the FED rule for Tie-Breaker allows lots of variance per state:
Tie-Breaker Procedure for FED..Rule 4...Section 2...Article 6
"By state association adoption, a tie-breaker procedure may be instituted at a point in the game specified by the state association."
I think if put in that situation in a FED game, I just might have allowed a courtesy runner for pitcher or catcher...hummmmmm....learning something each day.
