Question
can a switch hitter switch sides of the plate during the count? i cannot find this covered in the little league rule book
Stephencmcdaniel,
Sorry about the delay in answering...I was out of town.
After a hitter receives one pitch, he may not switch sides of the plate during that at bat. Unless the pitcher is removed and a new pitcher is put into the game.
Hope this helps!
Brian
