Maybe leagues should have players take a rule test like we do. Or do you think would that be a bad idea?
I umpire one SP league in which many of the players suffered under me when I "taught" them English in junior high school. At least for that league, bad idea.
If they were to be tested, it would have to be done orally, with every situation presented on film, or actors simulating the plays.
And it would have to be multiple choice of two possible answers, like "out/safe" or "run scores/run doesn't score."
