Men's league tournament. I'm watching after our game earlier in the evening.
Team 1 trots out about a 9-year old kid to play right field in the top of the seventh during a 21-9 game. Team 2 makes a comeback before losing to Team 1, 21-18. League rules say any player must have completed his junior year of high school to be able to play in any game. The other factor is Team 1 has been bending and breaking league/facility rules all season long (drinking in the dugout, swearing at each other from across the field).
By rule, the 9-year old was an illegal player. Would you protest under this scenario?
