That's the second time this week, actually in two days, that I have heard of runners being called out for helmet removal in NFHS. That's an ASA rule and we need to pass the word to get NFHS umpires to stop calling it wrong in HS games.

Well, Cecil, make it three....

JV game a few weeks ago, large run differential, runner coming home on a base hit to the outfield, no play is going to happen on the runner, she removes her helmet about five steps from the plate right in front of me.

DEAD BALL! Runner is out for intentionally removing her helmet!

Did not catch any heat for it, her coach started yelling at her for wearing a helmet that was too big!

Mea Culpa, Mea Culpa.......
