Dave, the OBR and LL version are very similar, and the meaning of the rules is identical, but the two versions are not verbatim. The LL version has been altered to remove gender-specific references. For example, 5.11 (OBR) is:
"... play shall be resumed when the pitcher takes his place on the pitcher's plate with a new ball or the same ball in his possession..."
The 2005 LL version is:
"...play shall be resumed when the pitcher takes a position on the pitcher's plate with a new ball or the same ball in said pitcher's possesion..."

These differences are trivial for the discussion in this thread. But I wonder if you have a LL rulebook in which 5.11 is truly identical to the OBR? If so, what is its title?
