Why can't they disallow it, and kill the play in youth ball. Or at least 16 & Under. The other baserunners who are stealing is the issue.
Many UIC's at local level ball are recommending we Kill the play and put the stealing runners back to where they were before all the Chaos started. OPINIONS ??

There is no difference in the rule for JO or adult.
I suggest you check ASA rule 8.7.P. This specifically states that the rule does NOT apply to a BR running to first base when not entitled due to an uncaught third strike.
