Seems that LL has changed since the early 1980's. Base umpires went out on trouble balls and the PU took the runners. But lately, LL has allowed the PU's to "grow roots" behind the plate.

Also remember, you're not on a "LL only" forum here so your statements will get challenged and corrected. We try to cover the three rule books out there (and there are only 3) OBR, NCAA and FED. Anything else is derived from one of these as in your case; LL is derived from OBR. Please try and remember that.
