In USSSA (OBR) there are no dead ball appeals. I can see why a USSSA coach would be really POed.


Let me explain further, the league used to be a USSSA travel league and as an umpiring group we can never be sure about these things except that we have been told by the league (shose director is a high school varsity baseball coach) and the teams, which are coached by parents, for the last two years that the league uses NFHS Baseball Rules because the players are going to be playing NFHS when they get to high school and therefore those are the rules they want used.
