Question on batting the entire roster in pool play. If one player gets ejected, game is a forfeit?

That is what I understand.

Wait and see what happens when the parents begin to realize that if a team bats 12, it is possible some players will only get one AB.

Shorthanded Rule: When a team elects to bat more than nine batters the game will continue with the skipped batter being recorded as an out whenever a player leaves the game for any reason other than an ejection. Teams cannot play with less than 8 players. If a team loses a player from the batting order due to an ejection the game would end in a forfeit. EXAMPLE: If a team bat’s 15 and all they have are 15, no subs, and they lose one batter due to ejection, the game would end in a forfeit.

With the National UIC clinic this weekend in OKC, you could expect to hear next week. Those attending are already there.
