Actually, though, as I recall, that has something to do with a Base Bandit or something like that. Don't have too much familiarity with ISF, but I recall some association that had Base Bandit tourneys a while back. |
ISA (not ISF) does use a Base Bandit or Base Burglar hence the cartoon character in prison garb. It is their version of a Courtesy Runner.
ISA - Rule 3 - Section 4 - THE BASE BANDIT/BASE BURGLAR is allowed to run once an inning. If the (BB) enters the game, the (BB) position is eliminated. If the (BB) is injured while on base, the batter/runner that the (BB) ran for must take their proper place on base.
The BB must also be listed on the starting lineup.
