Calling NSA for the first time this weekend (Youth SP). a 6 to 10 foot arch is the biggest difference I see in the rules. Any other biggies I need to know about?

I'm not sure about SP, but there are some key ASA-NSA differences in FP:
Awarding bases on obstruction. Use of the white/orange base. Substitutions. Runner hit by batted ball while in contact with base. Look for a thread from a couple of months ago. |
I will make a point of looking over those items during the ride down this morning. Thanks for the reply.

From an earlier thread:
NSA 1. Batting out of order is treated exactly as in OBR. 2. If the BR touches 1B with the bat still in his possession, he is out. (Remember the discussion about how in ASA the BR can carry the bat around the bases as long as he does not interfere?) 3. If there's a play at 1B and the BR touches the white part, she is out whether she beat the throw or not. 4. If obstruction occurs during a "run down," the runner is always awarded the advance base. (They don't define "run down," but I guess they figure we know one when we see one.) 5. If a runner is hit by a batted ball while in contact with a base, the ball is dead regardless of the position of any fielders. (BR gets 1B, other runners advance only if forced.) 6. For a foul tip, they supply a 170-word definition that still doesn't nail everything. 7. Crash rule specifies "deliberately, and with great force." There are undoubtedly more. Remember that these are FP differences. They may apply in SP, too, but I didn't read the SP rules. [Edited by greymule on Jun 12th, 2004 at 07:54 AM] |
