JV game between two fairly small schools...the home team - and it is ALWAYS the home team - had....drum roll.....EIGHT players. Yes - in high school ball.

Men's ball, sure - in fact, in my men's game last night, one team had eight to start. And it was a very easy and pleasant 4 1/2 inning 10 run rule game.
It was very....odd...to having to ask the scorekeeper occasionally which #s in the b.o. was due up in a hs game. And, of course, the visitors could not quite get that 15 run lead...until, of course, the
7th inning....
another week of hs games!
