Somebody who aspires to be a "real" Little League umpire needs to start reading the rules at very beginning of the book. The section titled "Official Regulations" and having sections with Roman numerals is also important; it has gems about pitcher eligibility and remediation that might come up.

Of course, Tim has long established that he doesn't care about basic issues of game management like player eligibility, which is why he'd be eaten alive by Little League managers.

I umpire Little League, mostly during tournament time, and I couldn't possibly care about "pitcher eligibility." It's up to the coaches to protest that kind of thing and up to the district administrator or tournament staff to sort that out.
