i think the umpire just wanted a pitcher out there that could find the plate. cuz i have never seen an umpire in little league (which is one of the three leagues that i call) call for a change of a pitcher after he has hit four batters. unless it is a rule for your area the umpire is not correct in the ruling. The little league rule book is the most disorganized garble of a rule book that i have seen. he must of been using rule 9.02(i think is the rule number my rule book is in my car), where it states that any rule not specifically covered is left to the discretion of the umpire.. but if he did that then he is abusing his authority on the field because that is a stupid use of the rule.
