I see quite a few posts:
"If I see X number of batters get hit, Im ejecting for the safety clause".

Please

Most injuries I see come off a bat.. not the little bruise from a HBP. I probably get HBP 10X than the average batter.

What if the pitcher is their best pitcher?
You gonna forfeit a HS Game?


I think its OOO to make such comments and worse if you actually really do do it.

That safety rule aint for that and when you see it in MLB its not safety - its USC so lets keep it all in perspective.

You got a pitcher USC hitting batters, fine. If not, you have to have a very very very strong case to nanny yourself into ejecting/benching that player on you own accord "for safety".

the fact the pitcher got dinged during an intentional walk shows me she probably is not the best pitcher and this is not USC.

rhsc and his inventing rules is one thing that is of course crossing the line.. I see many others say it all the time.
