1) I've been thinking what Tom said: "
It seems to me that NFHS went overboard on this one. What I like about the ASA rule (and conversely dislike about the NFHS rule) is in ASA the 10 seconds starts when the umpire instructs the batter to get into the box, whereas NFHS starts the 10 seconds when the pitcher receives the ball. Calling a strike on the batter when the pitchers is not ready to pitch just seems wrong."
2) Every rule change seem to bring out clinician subjectivity and I expect my two State clinics to be different.
3) I wish those of you already on fields in warmer climates would stop rubbing it in, at least until March 13th
