CR for Sub Catcher?
Sitch: HS varsity game under NFHS rules. Visiting team batting in the top of the fourth, already leading by a lot. Visiting head coach announces a sub for his starting catcher. The sub bats and walks. Then visiting coach announces a Courtesy Runner for the new catcher.
Illegal? Or am I reading the rule wrong about the pitcher and catcher who last physically played the positions are the ones that may be run for by a CR?
