Just how big a rule committee do they have and just how many locals really have any input at that level?

Which is why you still see states using a shot clock. The sanction isn't enough to prevent undesired behavior.

Apparently there are enough local youth baseball associations looking for something different that ASA has been developing ASA Baseball and are prepared to publish their own rule book. Personally, I think it is ludicrous, but then again, it has become less about the game.
