Question
ncapp
I have a quick question. The green book states that you can only pitch 40 pitches and still catch. If you pitch 41 pitches you are not allowed to catch in that game. However, It does not have a rule for the revese which is if a player catches first how many pitches is he allowed to throw if he comes into pitch? I also know that the green book states that if you catch for 4 inning you cannot pitch. Is there a rule that limits a kid from pitching to many pitches after he has caught in a game or do you just revert back to the normal pitch counts for the league age and it does not matter that he caught first. ? It seems like there is a loophole here? Thanks in advance. Nick

Whether the catcher may do so under the rules and whether it is prudent for a coach who cares about the health of his players' arms to do so are two separate things. The rule is designed to protect y

Play somewhere else then - where the league doesn't care as much about safety.
