ASA has added rule to allow slow pitch to have a "courtesy runner" once per inning. We can update our League By-law to reflect this: -Rule 8 Section 9B2: (All Adult Slow Pitch except Seniors) Any eligible player on the official line-up including available substitutes may be used as a courtesy runner. A courtesy runner may be used once per inning. NOTE: Any Courtesy Runner used in Coed must be gender specific. Comment: Allows for all Adult Slow Pitch Divisions of Play to use a Courtesy Runner once per inning.-League Bylaw: Injured Player Runner (not to be confused with ASA Courtesy Runner). Courtesy Runner: If an injured player is known prior to the game, the manger must notify the umpire and opposing team prior to the game. The injured player is deemed "injured" for the entire game. Upon notification the injured player can not go past first base unless it's awarded base (HR, ground rule double, male walks, etc.) After getting a base hit, the injured player shall be replaced by the first same sex player preceding him/her in the batting order that is not on base. A male player shall run for a male and a female for a female.
