I'm another that does not work LL sanction.
I know very little about their rules, but simply based on this string, some of their thinking seems logically fallacious. To not charge the pitcher a pitch count on the "do over" is counter to the reason the pitch count is in place in the first place, isn't it? If the batter became injured on that play, having a "do over" doesn't make him any less injured. Charging 4 pitches on an IBB is simply rife for strategic "non sportsmanlike actions". Just have him take the Don Drysdale approach: "Don Drysdale would consider an intentional walk a waste of three pitches. If he wants to put you on base, he can hit you with one pitch." - Mike Shannon I actually don't even know if runners can lead in LL. But maybe pitch counts should apply to throws to a base in an attempted pickoff. And while we're at it, warm up pitches should count, too.
