#10 Bloomingdale 2, #3 Newsome F

UPDATE: A member of the FHSAA Rules Committee this morning confirmed with the state’s governing body that this game should NOT have ended in a forfeit, as that rule has change from previous seasons.

With two outs in the bottom of the sixth and Newsome up 3-1, Bloomingdale head coach Kris Wilken called the umpire and opposing coach Dick Rohrberg’s, attention to the Bulls home team scorebook, which had Wolves starting pitcher Wade Walton in violation of the FHSAA pitch count rules. Bloomingdale said Walton’s first pitch to his final hitter was pitch number 106, one more than allowed to start a batter for a player 17-or-older. Wilken’s contention was that the violation meant the game was called as a forfeit win for the Bulls, and Rohrberg pulled his players off the field. No official call was made by the umpire crew, as Newsome’s departure from the field ended the game. Postgame, Rohrberg said his coaching staff had Walton finishing the previous batter at 104, meaning he could continue to face the next batter, but both team’s GameChanger had the pitch as number 106. If the violation is upheld by the FHSAA it would mean Walton would have to sit for the next seven days, and Rohrberg could face a penalty as well. He indicated via text he would contest the end of the game. In full transparency, we were in attendance at the game, but 813Preps does not keep a pitch count. Furthermore, IF the pitch total was over the limit, we don’t have a clear understanding of all of the penalties involved on this sort of violation. We reviewed the FHSAA 2023-24 rule book and found where it addressed the pitch-count violation, and it does not mention the game being a “forfeit,” however, games in the past have been deemed as such after the fact (example: the 2019 Saladino Tournament final, where Plant City violated the limit). Here is the exact verbiage used in the FHSAA handbook:

We will update this tomorrow when we find out more information.
