Does it behoove the B/R...?

Let's put it this way. This year, Carl Childress updated his Baseball Rules Differences manual and eliminated all J/R references in favor of Wendelstedt.

The rules do not address this completely IMO so I am quite comfortable in going with Wendelstedt's interpretation, especially since it is the one I favor.

It's a borderline TWP anyways so I'm not going to lose much sleep over it I don't think.

Who cares about Childress' book? It's just a compilation of other peoples' work. The fact that he switched from J/R to Wendelstedt is nothing more than his opinion. That and $5 will get you a Starbucks.

No, we don't await that. Now that's what I call feeding a troll. Can you make your request in your own thread without gumming up this one?
