IMO, LL Rule 7.14 the Sp Pinch Runner rule has not only given coaches fits but us FED umpires as well. In fact, during our summer meetings, we went over this rule "with a fine tooth comb" because this rule comes up every single game.

What's to hard about 7.14?

A special pinch runner (SPR) can be used once per inning.

The SPR has to be a player who isn't in the current lineup.

You can only run for someone once per game.

How complicated is that?
