What do YOU think?
Gentlemen,
For the last four years, at least one (sometimes two) of the baseball teams I have coached each season has been played under the rule code that can be found at the following link: http://www.dyba.com/pdfs/THE%20DYBA%...OOK%202006.pdf As "local rules" go, my opinion is that these are among the better ones I've seen. However, there are a FEW things about this paticular set that drive me crazy. I would like to get input from the membership of this forum regarding ONE of those things in particular. Specifically, my question is, what is the "foundation" rule code that this ruleset suggests - FED or OBR? If you are so inclined, I am asking you to read through the linked document and post your reply SOLELY as "OBR" or "FED". Please do NOT provide any rationale for your answer. After a few days, or twenty replies (whichever comes first), I will post MY answer and invite any who care to to provide their rationale for their answer. Thank you in advance for your consideration of my request. JM

In this league, I've been coaching 13/14 yr. olds. The league has teams that go all the way from T-Ball to 13/14 yr. olds, who play on an 80' diamond with a 54' rubber. JM

I will go with "neither" This league has it's own set of rules. Example: in the 5th/6th graders you can start the game with less than 9 players. I do not know of any League (other than the Sunday men's league) in which you can start a Game with less than 9 players. In FED you can finish the game with 8 but you MUST have 9 to Start. I would call this a "house" league Pete Booth

I would certainly not dispute your assertion. However, my question was a little different. Namely, based on your read, which rule code do these "house" rules say you use for the things that are NOT changed by the local rules? JM
