[QUOTE=tkaufman
you are correct that 7.09 (g) also refers to willful and deliberate, except with regards to the b/r. i was just pointing out that these two rules (7.09 (f,g)) were not put into place until the 1950's because of the cheating jackie robinson.[/QUOTE]

Care to be more forthcoming on the "cheating" Robinson statements?

I can't find the entire MLB rule book in PDF format. Can you give me a link?

I did however find these handy dandy 2007 MLB rules changes in PDF. Here is this link:

Greymule, I recommend that you use these rules rather than older books.

Yes, I'm using a 2001 book. That's where the problem lies. I should know better.

After my game today, I'm going to stop by Borders and use my discount coupon to get a new book.

Never seen it on SNL, but south park had a whole episode called "Cartman Joins NAMBLA." The whole conflict in the episode was between the "North American Man-Boy Love Association" (NAMBLA) and the "North American Marlon Brando Look-Alikes" (NAMBLA). One of my favorite episodes

I suggest we raise money to send the NAMBLA people on a sightseeing tour of Iran.

Well, at MLB.com under "Official Info" near the bottom of the page is a link entitled Official Rules. That works. Or you can use this link http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/official_info...s/foreword.jsp
There are 11 separate PDF files, one for each section and an index.

Yes that was a good episode. However, kyplejt credited Emily Litella, a SNL character, with the quote.
