Sometimes the coaches will send in return fouls balls from the dugout. Last week at a HS tournament, this was done in a rain storm. Honestly I didn't think anything of it. After the inning, I went and picked up the ball trying to keep it dry. To my amazement, it was an NSA "Shark" ball - not approved for HS ball. The coach said it was a ball from their practice balls and it was an honest mistake. The only mistake was on my side - I should have never assumed the coaches would get it right on their own. Leson learned.

I actually worry more about the AA teams.
