Updates to PITCHING section of rules - Updated September 13, 2010

PITCHING:
2. If a batted ball hits a pitcher, the ball is dead, and the runners return to the last base legally possessed at the time of the pitch. When the pitcher is hit by a batted ball, the ball is dead and counts as one of the batter’s pitches unless it is the third (male) or fifth (female) pitch as the batter can’t strike out on a batted ball that hits the pitcher (Updated Sept. 10/10).

9. Any ball that comes to a stop within the dead ball zone is a dead ball and counts as a pitch (Updated Sept. 13/10)
· If a fielder grabs a grounder before it comes to a stop within the dead ball zone, the ball is considered live and the fielder can attempt to record an out.
· If a fielder drops a pop up within the dead ball zone (in fair territory), it is a live ball and the batter and the runners on base can attempt to reach the next available base safely.

Rule clarification - Sept. 7, 2010: Commit Line, Safe Line, tagging runners out between 3rd and home

The commit line is 21 feet from home plate. The safe line is drawn from the 3rd base edge of the plate to the backstop. The runner cannot be tagged between the lines, the ball must go to the plate before the runner crosses the safe line to record the out. This was done so there would never be any contact around home plate. I hope I was able to help.
