Little Bat Tournament

A wing vs wing Gillespie event-

Game Format

1. 3 outs per innings

2. 4 balls= walk, 3 Strikes= out.

3. Teams consist of up to 10 members

1 Pitcher, 1 Catcher, 8 fielders

Pitcher

1. The pitcher must throw the ball at a slow pitch. The umpire will tell the pitcher, up to 2 warnings, that they are throwing too fast, if it occurs again the batter may

take his base.

2. The pitcher may throw the ball overhand or underhand.

3. The ball must bounce once and only once before entering the strike zone.

4. The strike zone is as follows: The ball must bounce over home plate and between the batters knees and shoulders.

5. The pitcher may intentionally walk a runner.

Batter/Runner

1. All players must wear shoes to participate.

2. The right side of the sidewalk leading to first base is considered the foul line.

3. Regular baseball foul rules apply, if a ball rolls foul before first or third

4. If the ball enters the sand court while people are playing volleyball it is a ground rule single. If the ball enters the basketball court and impedes a fielder from making a play it is ruled a ground rule double.

5. If the ball is hit into the gutter system or on the roof, the batter is automatically out.

6. Runners may over run all bases. The runner must run in a straight line past the base, if they attempt to turn to run to the next base they are no longer considered to be over running the base.

7. Sliding is not allowed and will result in the runner being out.

8. A batter must use both hands on the bat to hit the ball (No donkey Kong style).

9. A fielder cannot stand directly in the way of a base runner and block them from the base.

10. If the ball strikes a lamppost it is automatically a fair ball no matter where the ball goes.

11. If the team at bat scores 10 runs in one inning the inning is automatically over.

12. If the ball ends up out of play (i.e. gets stuck in bikes, stuck in a tree, squirrels run away with the ball, etc.) runners can only advance one base.

13. Runners may not lead off the base.

14. Runners may not steal bases.

15. Runners may not leave the baseline by more than a few feet. An umpire will call the runner out if they leave the baseline by too much.
