Can the assistant coach address the Ump?

[Gtrips07]

I cannot speak for other codes' processes, but there is an umpire on another forum I read who was on the NFHS baseball rules committee. It actually is a horribly drawn out process to get a rule changed. Sadly, this is why we get interpretations that don't always match up with the rules. They can issue interps without much of a process and will use this as a band-aid or end-around.

I absolutely agree @Greatdaytobeawildcat , the USSSA rule book is one of the worst written rulebooks. They all have issues (conflicts, inconsistencies, and unclear language), but U-Trip's is the worst (of the ones I use). MLB's Official Rules of Baseball is actually pretty bad, too. In my opinion, cleaning up the rule book is NOT changing rules and should be done.

If MLB cleaned up the rule book then they couldn't blame the umpires.
