The weird stuff!

Around here the sub is generally announced, with a lot of shouts of "13 for 21! 13 for 21!" And given my system for writing subs (which I learned from our own Tee), I will know who has subbed for whom and will be able to adjudicate BOO.

OTOH, if the sub is not announced, then he's subbing for the correct batter. Doesn't matter what the coach's intention was here.

In other news, hi Peter! Long time no see...What was it you used to say about TWP's happening to TWU's?
