Question
Guest Craig
12u league.
1st question. Last at bat the player rolls his ankle and hobbled off the field but continues to play. Next at bat, he singles and the coach requests the last out player as a courtesy runner and expects this rule to be in place for the hobbled player for the rest of the game. Ruling?
2nd question. Runner on first and a 2-2 count on the batter. Next pitch is ball 3, but batter mistakenly thinks it is ball 4 and runs to 1st base. The runner on first goes to second. When the batter is told and realizes he was not walked he returns to the batters box. However, the runner at second remains at second. No dead ball or time out was called, and the coach argues that he does not have to return to first because of this. Does the runner return to first? Ruling?
Thanks I'm advance.

1) I don't keep up with LL rules, but at other levels courtesy runner rules are normal set by league or state association. With that being said, I would allow this with no problem in league ball Unles

In the case: There are no courtesy runners in Little League. You could use a Special Pinch Runner for him but only once. After that it's a normal sub and sub rules apply. Caveat: If you are using
