Posted | Discussion |
Feb. 10 portsider Men's 55 1 posts | Can anyone tell me where to find the rule regarding "no sliding" at home plate. I was called out for sliding into the scoring plate in a tournament last weekend. There was no contact with the catcher and yes I know there was absolutely no reason to slide other than I just couldn't help myself. I would like to know if this a asa rule for seniors or just a local thing. |
