Discussion: 70's or 75's Phoenix Winter Worlds

Looking for a team that needs help in Phoenix as I will be in AZ for the Winter. My team from Washington had to back out of Winter Worlds. I'm a utility players but 1st base is my comfort zone, I know it well. Good glove, good stick, good attitude. Have played at AA, AAA and Major, AAA being best fit. I turn 74 next year so am eligible to play 75's in Phoenix.

Discussion: Looking To Join a 70's Team For Reno 2018

I live on the Olympic Peninsula in WA. and have family in Reno, would love to visit/play the end of this month. I'm 6'2" 200 lbs. generally hit in the .700's with warning track power (still looking for that extra 10 ft). Can play most any position but 1st base is my love, catch most anything thrown my way with a very good stretch, makes close plays turn into outs. Play 3 leagues when Wintering in Arizona, 2 of them are Div. 1

Topic: Rules of the game
Discussion: Courtesy Runner From Home

I have been searching to see if there is a rule concerning courtesy runners from home. I am recovering from a bad concussion and although I feel well enough to play, running does cause some issues and concerns. So for a few weeks I must use a courtesy runner from home and we have had some discussions on rules.

Today I hit one over the left fielders head and my runner turned it into a triple. After the play was over they other team argued I should be out because I left the batters box after I hit the ball. Yes... my initial reaction was to take a step or two, but I never went beyond where my bat laid, I stopped, picked it up and walked to the dugout. The umpire wasn't sure on the rule so as many do when in doubt... "your out".

In my area (Washington) we have a line that if crossed by the batter when using a courtesy runner, you are out. But the batters box? Are there set rules for a courtesy from home?
