[Bandit]

I know you specified "Pony" rules but if I may...In most organizations ( I mainly do ASA and HS) I do not believe it's the job of any umpire or scorekeeper to bring these problems to the attention of either coach. "Hey blue why you helping him?", "Hey blue you gave him a break last inning". Your asking for a lot of trouble their I think. But...if you were to "quietly" mention to the coach between innings that you noticed a different player playing first base last inning and was wondering if he forgot to tell you anything that might be considered "preventive" umpiring ? The worst feeling I ever got was once when the scorekeeper stopped a game I was doing and informed a coach he was batting out of order. While that coach got to put the correct batter in the box and assume the count, the opposing coach who claimed he knew they were out of order and was waiting until the batter had completed her turn at bat was fuming mad because the "scorekeeper" had just "helped" the opposing team.
