It's only in the tournament that hew has to re-enter in the same slot.

Wow! Lil' League following suit with FED!

Making rules up to make it even more difficult for officials to follow!

Help us all Rich!

Are you saying LL and FED have rules that you find difficult to understand? By omission are you saying that you have the NCAA DH rule, the NCAA ejection rules, the OBR DH rule, and the OBR DH rule when leagues allow reentry, aced.

I'm not sure who was first.

And both are there to maximize participation.

The FED rule isn't that hard to understand:

(1) Any starter may reenter once in the same slot in the batting order he originally occupied.

(2) Both the DH and the player he's DHing for are considered starters.

I understand the rule. I was being sarcastic.

I remember coaching in Europe playing under Lilttle League. During the season I would substitute normally, then found out later about the difference between reg season and Turny play.

Just seemed weird to play a whole season one way and have to change during playoffs..

Rich, did they change it over the years?

I thought it was during the playoffs you can re-enter anywhere in the line up.

I never did figure it out

Regular season sub rule hasn't changed in decades.

T-Rules change periodically.
