The pitcher threw his back out and was still pitching? Who is in charge here?

I should probably have mentioned this is 12" softball we're playing, not baseball. The guy made it through the 4th inning before giving up. He even took his at bats so we didn't have to take the automatic out. Walked once.

Our pitcher is 27. My dad is 57. And give my dad credit. He finished the game after this happened...I think it was the second inning.

In the case of IFF, the rule is the same...

But for future reference, softball questions belong in the softball forum. In a great many cases, the rules are not the same between MLB and Slow-pitch softball.

Duly noted. I figured the Infield Fly rule was universal.
