SCREWBALL!! What the hell is that you might ask? Well people at the RA thought they weren’t going to have a tournament, they said so in captains meeting. Apparently they were still told they are going to try to get this together so a bunch of people sat down to discuss who the hell NOT to get enough teams to have to host this thing and this is what they came up with!

(This is the writer’s opinion and in no way represents the sentiments of the SBW empire, it’s owner or it’s employees [captains and players])

That being said check the rules bellow carefully cause it’s actually screwed in the head! And for that reason it sounds like fun and so we are in!

7th inning: Ur Choice – Teams can alter their batting order to anything they want. All batters must bat, one at-bat each, and one at-bat only. Once all batters have batted, their half of the inning is over. *If one team has more batters than the other, the team with the lesser number of batters gets as many extra at-bats to equal the opposing teams’ number of batters. Batters must bat in order – no altering the batting order for the ‘extra’ batters.

Tiebreaker: (A) One pitch! Batters only get one pitch. You pitch to your own team.

If still tied…
