I had this Saturday, 11-12 Cal Ripken 50/70, home team has "walk up" music they play introducing each batter. My problem was they would start it while the pitcher was in his windup and let it play thru that pitch and longer. It was very distracting because it was sitting at the backstop behind the plate and LOUD. I fermenter a tourney that had a rule about artificial nose to distract the pitchers but i can't find anything in the rules. 

 

I told them it needed to be finished playing before the pitcher started his windup but they continued until I had them remove it completely. What should I have done in this case?

Don’t let  play start until the music ends. If if gets tiresome, were you have to hold up play several times, inform whoever is on charge “ that’s it. If you can’t stop the music before the AB, there will be no more music.”
