AT WHAT POINT DOES A NEW INNING START?

[Patrick Szalapski]

I've got to agree with the majority here. The rules certainly say that the ball does not become dead on the third out; indeed, there is good reason for this. However, by common sense, the ball does become dead at some point; after all, we have nine new defensive players on the field!

Also, I prefer not to use the "do not pitch" signal unless absolutely necessary.
