RULES CHANGES
At our March meeting, managers voted to allow a second extra hitter (EH) in lineups in 2012.
This EH will have the same rules that apply to the regular EH.
Realignment was also voted on and passed. Six teams now comprise the American League,
while 12 teams in two divisions make up the National League. Newport Dove will not field a team this year.
The breakdown can be viewed at the "League Rules" tab at left.
Also, base paths will remain at 65 feet despite ASA going to 70-foot bases.
Ephrata league is also staying at 65 feet, while Donegal league is going to 70.
At April meeting, vote made to change home-run rule from 4 per game to 2-up with a maximum of five.
This means a team can not hit its third homer until the opposing team hits its first, and so on.
