What's next?

Since all umpires interpret the strike zone differently, there will be no called strikes at this tournament. Only pitches that are swung at and missed or foul balls will be counted as strikes.
I prefer the self-pitch games. The team at bat supplies the pitcher. The batter has two pitches to put into fair play or they are out. Defense positions a "pitcher" wherever they please and if the actual pitcher deflects or catches a batted ball, the BR is out.

My type of game
