Rules and source notes

Little League International · Intermediate 50/70 · regular-season pilot. Sources reviewed 2026-09-06. No edition metadata displayed. Absence of a slash-bunt ban in this section does not prove universal legality under all other rules or local options. No edition/build metadata displayed. App origin user-attested; supplied source text, not independently acquired app session. No edition/build metadata displayed; user-attested app origin. This is not a complete rulebook or a tournament eligibility guide. Coaching suggestions are labeled teaching choices, not national rules.

eligibility: The national division age band is league ages 11-13; actual roster and tournament eligibility must be checked separately. (regular-season; national-rule) Little League Baseball Divisions
amendments: The 2026 update list was reviewed. Relevant changes include returning-pitcher visits, simultaneous courtesy runners, and either half of double first on an uncaught third strike. The corresponding full rule governs exceptions. (all-play; national-rule) 2026 Rule Changes and Clarifications Little League Baseball Rulebook app: Rule 8
balk: Balk rules apply with runners on base. From the set position the pitcher must stop before delivering. Rule 8.05 includes a play-result exception when the batter reaches first and every runner advances at least one base; do not teach every balk as an unconditional immediate stoppage. (all-play; national-rule) Little League Baseball Rulebook app: Rule 8
eligibility: Intermediate permits qualifying USA Baseball bats and qualifying BBCOR bats under Rule 1.10. The coach must inspect the whole equipment rule, not infer eligibility from barrel size alone. (all-play; national-rule) Little League Baseball Rulebook app: Rules 1.08 and 1.10
pitching: Catching four or more innings in the same game prevents pitching that calendar day. Pitching 41 or more prevents later catching unless the 40-pitch batter exception applies. A player who catches up to three innings, then pitches 21 or more, cannot return to catcher unless the 20-pitch batter exception applies. One live pitch in an inning counts as an inning caught. (regular-season; national-rule) Regular Season Pitching Rules
infield-fly: With fewer than two outs and first and second occupied (or bases loaded), a fair fly other than a bunt or line drive that an infielder can handle with ordinary effort can be an infield fly. The batter is out; the ball stays live. Catch/retouch obligations still matter. (all-play; national-rule) Explanation of the Infield Fly Rule
geometry: Intermediate uses 70-foot base paths and a 50-foot pitching distance. (all-play; national-rule) Little League Baseball Divisions
leadoffs: Intermediate permits leadoffs, steal attempts at any time while play is live, and an on-deck batter. Do not import the Majors wait-until-the-pitch-reaches-the-batter restriction. (all-play; national-rule) Little League Baseball Divisions
mandatory-play: Regular-season mandatory play calls for six defensive outs and one at-bat. This is not identical to the consecutive-outs re-entry requirement. Check Regulation IV(i) for shortened games, exceptions and remedies; do not substitute a local custom or assume this is the tournament procedure. (regular-season; national-rule) Regular Season Rules and Regulations Spotlight Little League Baseball Rulebook app: Rule 3.03
balk: Rule 8.01 permits a legal step-and-throw pickoff from the rubber. A pitcher in contact must step directly toward the base before a throw. A feint to first from the rubber is not a legal throw over. (all-play; national-rule) Little League Baseball Rulebook app: Rule 8
pitching: Regular-season daily limits: league ages 11-12, 85; league age 13, 95. The finish-batter exception ends when that batter reaches base, that batter is retired, the third out occurs, or the pitcher is removed before the plate appearance ends. Intermediate pitchers cannot pitch in two games in one day. (regular-season; national-rule) Regular Season Pitching Rules
substitution: An Intermediate pitcher who stays in the game defensively at another position may return to pitch once in that game, subject to eligibility. Under 8.06(b), prior visits remain attached to that pitcher; remaining visits do not by themselves bar return. (regular-season; national-rule) Regular Season Pitching Rules Little League Baseball Rulebook app: Rule 8 2026 Rule Changes and Clarifications
substitution: With a traditional batting order, starter re-entry requires the substitute's defined at-bat and six consecutive defensive outs; the original batting slot is retained. Once mandatory play is met, starter and substitutes may re-enter for one another as Rule 3.03 permits. Emergency exceptions require the actual rule, not an invented roster shortcut. (regular-season; national-rule) Little League Baseball Rulebook app: Rule 3.03
rest: League age 14 and under: 1-20 pitches requires 0 calendar rest days; 21-35 requires 1; 36-50 requires 2; 51-65 requires 3; 66 or more requires 4. Rest thresholds use the first pitch to the batter. No pitching on three consecutive days. (regular-season; national-rule) Regular Season Pitching Rules
safety: Stop throwing for fatigue. Elbow or shoulder pain requires stopping pitching and evaluation by a sports-medicine physician. Keep an off-season, coordinate workloads across teams, develop basic throwing before fastball and changeup, and avoid combining pitcher and catcher workloads. Eligibility is not medical clearance. (safety-guidance; safety-guidance) Position Statement for Adolescent Baseball Pitchers
eligibility: The supplied complete Rule 6.06 does not establish a blanket national slash-bunt ban. This does not establish universal legality. A no-slash training station is an academy coaching choice, with actual governing and adopted local restrictions checked separately. (all-play; national-rule) Little League Baseball Rulebook app: complete Rule 6.06
third-strike: On an uncaught third strike the batter can become a runner with first unoccupied or with two outs. With first occupied and fewer than two outs, do not manufacture a force by treating the batter as eligible to run. (all-play; national-rule) Uncaught Third Strike: No Catch
