I'm not clear on a visit to the pitcher rule reminded to me tonight. Nowhere in MLB rules, or in SS modifications do I see where you only get two "free" visits to the mound in a game, and thereafter all visits must result in a pitcher replacement. I'm sure I'm missing that somewhere...but where?

thanks in advance,

Superseries baseball uses MLB pitching rules. The rule you quoted is a high school rule and does not apply.

Per the rules posted at superseriesbaseball.com:

4.27 PITCHING LIMITATIONS:
NONE. Per Sporting News rules, pitchers must be removed upon the second visit to the mound or field by any coach in the same inning. If a coach calls time, and crosses the foul line to confer with any player, this shall be considered a visit for that inning.
