Rich,
Rules for the pitch count test the past two years permit a F1 to finish the batter when they reach the maximum allowed pitches.
Pitch counts year 1 were Major Div only. This year the test was for all divisions. A little tuning and it should be ready in 2007 for all leagues.
From what LL has published internally, pitch count test leagues have seen most managers pull F1 between innings when they have <10 pitches left (IMO is a good thing).
