NFHS Rule 1-6-3
states that non-adult bat/ball shaggers shall wear batting helmets while in live-ball area, even if the ball is dead. Does this apply to a player protecting a pitcher warming up? I've never had this situation in a game that I've called but seems like it happens all the time during DD's game. Yesterday's game was a classic exchange:
Umpire: Time. Coach, she's got to have a helmet on.
Coach: But our last umpire told me she didn't have to have one on.
Umpire just shrugged.
