The Man in Blue Posted April 22 Report Posted April 22 Our state association sends out a short 5 or 6 question quiz each week. So . . . what am I missing on this question? 3.Which of the following statements is true about defensive charged conferences? (1 Point) Each team is allowed 3 defensive charged conferences during a 7-inning game before having to remove the pitcher for the rest of the game. A coach may visit the mound twice in the 1st inning without having to remove the pitcher. A team is not charged with a defensive conference if the coach visits the mound and makes a pitching change. All of the above Since we don't have spoiler tags on this forum, I will post my answer and the results in the next post. Don't scroll down until you are ready!
The Man in Blue Posted April 22 Author Report Posted April 22 So, I see two correct answers (A and C), one incorrect answer (B), and one impossible (D - all of the above) answer. Since only one can be correct, I started parsing language. I figured the first one looked like a trick . . . as if it was saying on the third conference (not on each successive one). Well . . . Incorrect 0/1 Points 3.Which of the following statements is true about defensive charged conferences?

Feedback:Rule 3-4-1 All of the above

OK, I'm going to plead a moment of complete and utter ignorance and stupidity on this one. Why do I have it in my head that it is one per inning? (No, it is not because of the extra innings conferences.) I even know that I used to know this, because it is one I used to use to grill coaches on. (Coach, you can use 'em all right now, if you want.) 1

Kevin_K Posted April 23 Report Posted April 23 I'm a moron. Reading is fundamental to understanding. My eyes saw offensive and my brain read defensive. 45 minutes ago, JSam21 said: It is one offensive conference per inning. My apologies @JSam21. 1
The Man in Blue Posted April 23 Author Report Posted April 23 4 hours ago, JSam21 said: It is one offensive conference per inning. Thats not it. Yes, that is correct, but no, that’s not why I was having a mental deflation moment … Was this a thing in the past? Way back in the past? Now I am just intrigued as to where this notion came from. It seems to me as a kid playing ball it was the case. Or maybe it is just another viral umpiring infection?
DevildogUmp Posted April 24 Report Posted April 24 @The Man in Blue Little League is 1 per inning (removal on 2nd)/2 per game (removal on 3rd), but visits reset with each new pitcher.
The Man in Blue Posted April 24 Author Report Posted April 24 Good pick up, @DevildogUmp. I never worked or played actual Little League, but maybe it was a derivative somewhere along the way. Yeah, this is just bugging me. 😁
