Tuesday, April 8 2008 Pitch Count Regulation Guide
If a player pitches 61 or more pitches in a day, 3 calendar days of rest, and a game, must be observed. If a player pitches 41 to 60 pitches in a day, 2 calendar days of rest, and a game, must be observed. If a player pitches 21 to 40 pitches in a day, 1 calendar days of rest must be observed. If a player pitches 1 to 20 pitches in a day, no calendar days of rest must be observed. The manager must remove the pitcher when the player's limit is reached: 17 to 18 years old, 105 pitches per day, 13 to 16 years old, 95 pitches per day, 11 to 12 years old, 85 pitches per day, 9 to 10 years old, 75 pitches per day, or 7 to 8 years old, 50 pitches per day Players once removed from the mound may not return as pitchers. (Junior, Senior, and Big League Divisions only: A pitcher remaining in the game, but moving to a different position, can return as a pitcher anytime in the remainder of the game, but only once per game.) If a pitcher reaches the pitching limit for his/her league age while facing a batter, the pitcher may continue to pitch until any one of the following conditions occurs: 1. That batter reaches base; 2. That batter is put out; 3. The third out is made to complete the half-inning. NOTE: A pitcher who delivers one or more pitches in a game cannot play the position of catcher for the remainder of that day. A player may not pitch in consecutive games. Exception League Age 16 and under - A player may pitch in consecutive games if 40 or less pitches were delivered in the previous game. League Age 17-18 - A player may pitch in consecutive games if 50 or less pitches were delivered in the previous game. Note: The consecutive game can occur during the pitcher's day(s) of rest. (Example: Pitcher A, age 12, ends with 45 pitches on Monday's game. Pitcher A plays short stop at Wednesday's game. Pitcher A is eligible to pitch at the team's Saturday game. The 2 days of rest were Tuesday and Wednesday. Wednesday was also the consecutive game. Since the days of rest and game of rest regulations were both met, Pitcher A is qualified to pitch at Saturday's game.)
