Question

I coach a Pixie (9 & under) girls team. My prior experience has been entirely baseball, so I'm still learning lots of things.

The league we play in uses a 7 run rule. In the prior baseball leagues I've had experience with, this meant that after the play completed on which the 7th run was scored the inning was over, and only 7 runs were counted. I was surprised to find out that in this league, they count any runners who cross the plate on the play, thereby making it possible to score as many as 10 runs in the inning.

Which way is more common? I'm just looking for feedback.
