I've done pleanty of games in both softball and baseball where the teams involved play under different rules. When I am assigned a game one of the first questions I ask is "what set of rules are we using?" If I can't get told that before the game then I find out at the game. Seems to me that in this story, no one knew which set of rules were being used, including the umpire.
This is very easy to address in the pregame. After the introductions then you simply say "Coaches, this game is being played under so and so's rules. Any questions? Alright now ground rules for this field are...."
Very simple, very easy, and you can eliminate a bunch of problems before they start.
