What is the ruling if a pitcher pitches 6 innings - then we play a double header against the same team and she comes in the 5th inning to pitch in the second game - is she legal?

3. Little League (Majors) Division: If doubleheaders are played, the limitation of nine (9) innings (10 innings for Junior/Senior/Big League) in a calendar day would apply to each pitcher. A pitcher who pitches in the first game may pitch in the second game provided that pitcher has eligibility remaining.
