Yeah that pivot makes no sense at all. All it does it get U1 in the way of a possible throw from F9 to the plate. U1 could do his job just as well in foul territory.
Who writes the LL mechanics? Is it Andy K? Does LL uses its own mechanics in its regualar field games, or do they go CCA or something else? I would hope on a normal field, they would not have U1 come in a pivot.

I don't think there IS an actual, published, official Little League system for 4 or 6 man mechanics on the small diamond.
I work full sized diamond LL, and in postseason when we have 3 or 4 man crews, we work pro, PBUC mechanics.
On the small diamond, I think each region is pretty much just "winging" it.
