I started reading through the 2012 USSSA Fast-pitch Casebook yesterday. I noticed something unusual. There are several instances where the book tells us to restrict a player to the dugout/beach.
But....but...this is Oklahoma!
We don't usually have a beach readily available at our ball fields. I can understand it if I was in Hawaii or Florida. Shoot...even Texas.
In all honesty, if I had a beach next to my field each game, I'd be calling the game from there myself!!
