11 year old pitcher

[Guest don loessberg]

if an 11 year old faces his last batter at pitch 82 and goes over 85 pitches. is there any penalty? or does he get to finish his last batter

I am not certain about all states or rules sets but in LL they can finish their last better and in Georgia HS with the new pitch count procedures put in place this year they can finish whatever batter they are facing but must be pulled at the conclusion of that at bat.

/\ this

 

however, for LL as long as the pitcher starts the last batter below the next threshold, weather it is 20/35/50/65/85, he can finish that batter and the threshold just past applies.

LL allows this so that the pace of the game is not interrupted by swapping pitchers mid-batter.
