FED ruling

The rule in FED is 1-2-4.

Basically the players must warm up in their on-deck circle.

Players constantly want to get up close to the plate, but I just tell them you have to be in the on-deck circle.

Personally I always tell them "I don't want you to get hit", just to remind them its a safety rule.

We all remember the kid who got beaned a few years back while warming up while standing near the plate.

Also 2-23-1 talks about on-deck circle.

Thanks
David
