Little League Int'l will be making the following changes for 2009:
1) Detachable bases will be mandatory. Detachable bases are designed to detach from the
ground base when impacted to lessen the chance of injury for sliding players, etc.
2) The pitcher may not pitch in consecutive games even after the required
number of rest days are observed. Exceptions are given when the minimum is pitched
(refer to rules).
3) Pitchers MAY move to the catcher position after pitching provided no more than 41
pitches have been thrown by that pitcher.
