Please enlighten us? This IS, 2010 isn't it?

What dash said...

For whatever reason (my eighth year of FED ball and I still don't know the reason behind it...maybe lawump will read this and chime in...) we do not do appeals in South Carolina. If we see an appealable play, we call it. The burden is not on the defense to appeal, it is done automatically (assuming it is seen by the umpire).

That said, the longtime head of baseball in the SC High School League has retired, so maybe this quirk will be on its way out soon. I can only hope...
