Courtesy runner and 8-10-E
ASA code. Coach is running DP/flex, flex is the pitcher. DP bats, gets on base and coach comes out and subs the flex for the DP, then requests a courtesy runner for the pitcher. Is this legal in ASA? 8-10-E says no courtesy runner for the DP if batting for the pitcher or catcher, but does not make mention if the pitcher or catcher are substituted in for the DP.
FED it is illegal and have case book citation. Can not find in ASA rule book where this is specifically addressed. Does anyone have rule citation or a case book study from ASA that addresses this.
