Q: On my second conference of the game and in the inning, the umpire told me that I must remove the pitcher. Is that correct?
A: No. That’s the major league rule. NFHS rules state that the defense has three charged conferences. A Team is allowed 3 charged conferences in a 7 inning game and 1 charged conference per extra inning before the pitcher must be removed. F1 is removed on the fourth charged defensive conference in high school. Note: this is a team rule not an individual rule for each pitcher.
