My 2 cents:
In the situation described A gets a play! If I am facing the "wrong" direction then I'm having a conference with my crew (4 man for rec ball) to see if they had time on the clock when the QB asks for time. If no one can confirm the time status then game over. Having said that, except for championship games, rec fields do not have a field clock. The LJ will keep the game clock and most likely the game would be over. That would be dependent on what has occured during the rest of the game; a hard fought, tight contest will have less "creative timing" than a game where the outcome is obvious by the middle of the third quarter. (I may hear from some of you purists out there, but in this one instance, Derock is correct: You officiate rec games differently than high school. Don't read too much into this Derock, sounds to me you have one years experience seven times!)
As far as game clocks with tenths of seconds, here in Northern Virginia we have several schools with these type of clocks (some you can disable and some you can't). Generally, they are multi-pourpose keyboards that can be used for several different sports depending on the start up code entered.
