Several of the umpires in our league cover this issue in ground rules. They state that while it is not in the rules, it is within their discretion as an umpire to request that a pitcher be replaced after hitting 3 batters. A warning is given after each hit batter. I have never seen a coach complain since the ground rules are understood up front and plenty of warning is given.
