I have the hard copy of the NSA rulebook in my hand. It's the wording of the rule that throws me off. Under NSA fastpitch section, rule 4-6-f offers the option of using a player "not currently in the game" as a courtesy runner. That could be interpreted as a sub (or starter) that once was in the game but now has been replaced, therefore not "currently" in the game. The partners I worked with this weekend had different interpretations about who could or couldn't be used as a courtesy runner. I seem to think that a player who has been in the game but now has been subbed for is eligible. At least that's the way I read the rule as it continues. I just want to be right.
