baseball's

SUSPENDED
GAMES
1) An
official game is 5 innings or 4 and one-half if the home team is ahead. If a
winner can be determined and no more
baseball can be played that day, the game is
over and a winner is declared. The game
does not have to go 7 innings.

a game is stopped before it becomes an official game, the game is a suspended
game. This game will be picked up at
that point. Score, inning, count of batter etc.
should all be recorded in scorebook.
3)
If the game is stopped after having gone long enough to be an official game,
however a winner cannot be determined
due to a tied score. This game becomes a
tied/suspended game at that point. This
game will be picked up at that point. Score,
inning, count of batter etc. should all
be recorded in scorebook.
4) If
a game is stopped after having gone long enough to become an official game and;
a) The visitors score a run or runs in
the top half of the inning. The game reverts
back to the last completed inning and either a winner is declared or we
have a tied/
suspended game. Or,
b) The visitors score a run or runs in
the top half of the inning and the home
team does not complete their at bat. The game reverts back to the last
completed
inning and either a winner is declared or we have a tied/suspended game.

tied/suspended game we pick up from that point (Visitors runs in the top
half of the
inning and home team runs in bottom half count). This game will be
picked up at
that point. Score, inning, count of batter etc. should all be recorded
in scorebook.
c) The home team ties the game in the
bottom half of the inning but doesn’t
complete the inning. If we cannot play anymore we have a tied/suspended
game at
that point. This game will be picked up at that point. Score, inning,
count of batter,
etc., should all be recorded in scorebook. Or,
d) The home team takes the lead in the
bottom half of the 5th or 6th inning,

SECTION V SPORTSMANSHIP POLICY
The Section V Athletic Association is committed to
promoting the proper ideals of
sportsmanship, ethical conduct and fair play at all
sectional activities. We will
oppose instances and activities which run counter
to the best values of athletic
competition in order to insure the well being of
all individual players. We will
expect acceptable standards of good citizenship and
proprietary with proper regard
for the rights of others.
We are further committed to the belief that schools
participating in sectional
activities should be held responsible for the
conduct of their players, coaches,
faculty members, and spectators. Conduct which is detrimental to the
educational
value of athletic activities may be deemed just
cause for the school’s reprimand,
probation, suspension from a particular sport, or
suspension from sectional activities.
SECTION V
THUNDER & LIGHTNING POLICY
(Revised 3/11/05)
“Thunder
and/or Lightning necessitates that all contests be suspended. The occurrence
of
either thunder and/or lightning is not subject to interpretation or
discussion. Thunder
is
thunder and lightning is lightning. If
thunder and/or lightning is observed, all outdoor
activities
will be suspended immediately. Players
and spectators shall be directed to a safe
location. The officials and responsible authorities
shall make every reasonable effort to
resume
and complete the contest, with full consideration of the weather and site
conditions
(as they affect safety and playing
conditions). The official/coaches shall
wait a minimum
of
30 minutes from the time of the interruption before considering the
resumption of play.
A. If thunder
and/or lightning is observed at the site of an outdoor contest by the
officials,
30 or fewer minutes prior to the
scheduled start of that contest, the official/coaches and
the responsible school authorities shall
not permit the contest to begin on that date until
the weather has cleared or the
conditions become playable.
B. If thunder
and/or lightning is observed at the site of an outdoor contest by the officials
during the playing of the contest, the
official/coaches shall immediately cease play for 30
minutes, then re-evaluate the
situation. The rules of the particular
sport shall determine
whether the contest is “official” or
must be resumed at a later date.”
SECTION V MILEAGE POLICY
1.
In Sectional rounds other than semis or finals, 75
miles will be the maximum one
way mileage when there is
school for either school the next day.
In the event that
there is a need to choose a
neutral site neither school should travel more than 50
miles. Any advantage should be given to the higher
seed as the sport committee
moves from the center point.
2. In
Sectional rounds other than semis or finals, where there is no school the next
day for either
school and the mileage exceeds 75 miles, the contests will be held
at the
higher seed. The visiting team may
petition the sports committee to play the
following
day. Final decision will rest with the
committee.
3. For semis
and finals, any site including predetermined sites may be appealed
individually
or jointly to the respective sports committee for a change of venue.
Final
decision for such a request rests with the sports committee.
4.
It is recommended that joint appeals to the committee
be honored except when
extenuating circumstances are
present.
Note: As
approved by Section V, all sports will use www.mapquest.com as the official
guide for mileage distance. Schools will be given an appropriate period
of time, as
determined by the Executive
Committee, to appeal a mileage they feel is incorrect.
The
mileage of the two competing schools will be determined in both directions
(regardless
of which team is traveling) and the shortest distance will always be
used.
