We will be using the National Courtesy Runner Rule in the past we have used a different rule. However the national rule was changed from "anyone in the lineup" to "anyone on the roster" .
Sec. 13. COURTESY RUNNERS: One courtesy runner per inning (one time) may be used.
The courtesy runner can be any player ON THE ROSTER. Once the courtesy runner occupies the
base, the selected courtesy runner may not be exchanged for any other desired courtesy runner.
If the courtesy runner is still on base at the time her/her turn at bat comes up, that spot in the
batting order will be an out. In the Mixed Program, any male player in the lineup may run for
any male, and any female player in the lineup may run for any female. Both a male and female
player may opt for a courtesy runner in each inning.
