OFFICIAL GAME/RESCHEDULED GAMES/PROTESTS All games played at The Newtown Classic are Official at the end of ONE (1) complete inning, regardless of age or reason for the stoppage (weather, darkness, etc.) This ruling is in place due to the time constrictions of weekend pool play. All age groups shall play 7-inning games. A team must have 9 players ready to play by the start of their game time as determined by Tournament schedule. Failure to have 9 players throughout the entire game will result in a forfeit of that game. No refunds will be given for any Tournament games that are forfeited. All teams must play their scheduled games. Any team that forfeits a scheduled game is ineligible for continued tournament play and is subject to further disciplinary action. Forfeits will be scored 7-0 in favor of the non-forfeiting team. The Newtown Classic reserves the right to reschedule games for any reason during the tournament, including, but not limited to weather issues, field availability, umpire availability, daylight, etc. All teams entered into any tournament must be available to play at any time during the course of the tournament. If any tournament game must be rescheduled and a team is not available, that team will forfeit that game and will not be eligible for any credits or refunds. In the event a tournament is set up in a losers bracket format the Newtown Classic reserves the right to revert to pool seeding in order to finish the tournament. All decisions by umpires on the field of play will be final. There are no protests at The Newtown Classic. Playing Rules Other than the exceptions that are detailed in this document, Babe Ruth Official Playing Rules will be used. Bats All bats must be BBCOR or wood. U18 wood bat only TIME LIMIT No new inning may start after the time limit elapses. The standard time limit for all age groups is 2 hours from the time of the first pitch of the game to the last out of an inning. Games can go into extra innings as long as the time limit has not expired. Pool play games can end in a tie. If the time limit is reached during an inning, that inning will be the last one of the game. If the home team is winning after the top half of that last inning, they will be declared the winner of the game and will not hit in the bottom half. If the home team is trailing and must hit in the bottom half of the last inning, the game will end at the moment the home team scores the winning run or at the moment of their third out. The Championship Game will not have a time limit and will be played to completion unless called for darkness or weather issues. This game will be official after one inning. If the Championship Game is tied when the game is called, Co-Champions will be declared. ROSTERS/UNIFORMS No more than 15 players and 4 adults (1 manager, 2 coaches, and 1 scorekeeper) allowed on the roster. Rosters are locked once a team’s first game begins. No player may be listed on more than 1 team roster during any Tournament. All players must be in uniform with numbers on their jersey. Managers and coaches need not be in uniform, but must be appropriately dressed. Substitutions Managers can use either nine or ten batters as a part of the original batting line-up. The manager also has the option to bat all players in uniform sequentially. If a Manager does not bat all players in uniform sequentially, substitutes can be entered into the original batting line-up for another player (who was originally in the batting line-up) as the game is being played as long as all substitutes are reported to the opposing team manager BEFORE he/she enters the line-up. Once the substitute batter is entered into the line-up, he/she must stay in that slot the remainder of the game. If a player is injured, then and only then can a substitute be moved to a different slot in the line-up. The Manager has the option in this scenario to alternate the original member of the line-up and any subsequent substitute in any manner that is desired as the game progresses as long as it is reported to the opposing Manager before the entry into the line-up takes place. The Manager can make defensive substitutions at any time with the exception of the pitcher (see rules for pitching). Offense and defensive play are not tied together in any way, shape, or form. BALKS No Warnings START OF GAME Home team will be determined by coin flip prior to the start of each game. Playoffs the higher seed is the home team. COURTESY RUNNER A courtesy runner is allowed for the catcher or pitcher at any time. Only the last batted is permitted to run for the catcher. Note that a strike out is considered a batted out. Manager may use a player off the bench if all players are not in the batting line up. MUST SLIDE RULE Players must attempt to avoid contact with other players in tag-out situations. If, in an umpire’s judgment, there is intentional contact, that umpire may call the runner out on that play. If the contact is judged as intentional and malicious, that umpire may also eject the player from the game. If a player is ejected for this reason, they may face suspension for their team’s next game with the possibility of further sanctions as well. HEAD FIRST SLIDE Permitted at all bases. INTENTIONAL WALKS All ages must throw 4 balls for an Intentional Walk. PITCHING RESTRICTIONS NONE - coach’s discretion. Second visit to the mound per inning will result in removal of pitcher. Once a pitcher is removed from the mound, they cannot re-enter the game as a pitcher even if they stay in the field as a defensive player. MERCY RULE Regardless of age, 15 runs after 3 innings, 10 runs after 4 innings. Home team does not bat if ahead by Mercy. Home team will bat if visiting team goes ahead in top of Mercy inning. INTENTIONAL DELAYS Intentionally delaying a game to achieve a victory through the time limit is considered unsportsmanlike conduct and will not be tolerated at The Newtown Classic Tournament. The umpires and/or tournament officials at the game reserve the right to eject a coach or player for intentionally delaying a game and possibly declare a forfeit to that team. EJECTIONS If a player, manager, coach, scorekeeper, parent, or fan is ejected from a game, they also face being suspended for the next game and even possible expulsion from the entire tournament. All ejections must be reported to the Director who will make the final determination on eligibility for future games. TIE BREAKERS Please note that a tie came equals ½ of a win and ½ of a loss for both teams towards their overall record and/or winning percentage. Therefore, a team that is 2-0-1 would have a winning percentage or .833 and a team that is 2-1-0 would have a winning percentage of .667. When two or more teams have the same overall record, or winning percentage, we will use the following procedure to break a tie: 1. Head-to-Head winning percentage if all teams involved in the tie played each other at least once. 2. Total Runs allowed. 3. Coin Flip In the case of a tie involving more than two teams, we revert back to step one whenever the procedure clearly eliminates a team or produces a winner. .

  • The Big Urban Game, Re-Play and Full City Tags Art Game Conceptions in Activism and Performance
    The big urban game, re-play and full city tags Art game conceptions in activism and performance MARGARETE JAHRMANN The practice of technological tagging of locations in contemporary urban spaces can be seen in relation to the concept of the ‘Re-Play’ of urban space and urban life using performance practices. The performance of technological play with mobile technologies in everyday life serves as the starting point for a new inter- pretation of modern cities as a positive utopia. Re-Play is introduced in this pa- per as an idea of staging knowledge. In my approach to performance, I consider play a method to identify topographies of cultural or historic interest in urban spaces and to frame potential inter-action on such sites. Play consequently ena- bles the extraction of new stories and new knowledge concerning narratives of the urban. The idea of Re-Play draws on the Situationist principle developed in the 1960s (Constant 1972), of a playful and open society living in a ‘New Baby- lon’ that offers zones of play and relaxation as a basis for creativity and a self- determined life – in relation to and through the constructivist use of technolo- gies. Contemporary activist play and performative urban games have to deal with a specific precondition: the electronic, electromagnetic and logic topography of the modern city, which is marked through ‘tags’. Tagging can be understood in two ways, first as an expression of an urban sub-culture of graffiti arts and sec- ondly as a technological term to indicate a virtual-reality marker in physical space.

  • Danger Ahead
    DANGER AHEAD FOR THE SOCIALIST PARTY IN PL.4YING THE GAME OF POLITICS 7 3 EUGEN& DEBS AND CHARLES EDWARD RUSSELL Price, 5 cents; 10 for 20 cents; $1.00 a hundred; $7.00 a thousand CHICAGO 7RARLES H. KERR & CXMPASY 118 West Kinzie Street FOREWORD. Th.e two articles herein republished first appeared in the International Socialist Re- view, the former in January and the latter in September, 1911. Both of them causd wide comment, both favorable and unfavor. abie. The Socialist movement develops itsi revolutionary character and clarifies it purposes by constant self-criticism. An, democratic organization can be properly regulated only by the frankest and freest dis-;lssion of its problems on the part of its membership. The contents of this book- let have a peculiar value for the SociaIist movement of America just at present. They demonstrate and emphasize the utter impotency of compromise. The labor par- ties of England and Australasia have proven themselves miserable failures. The revolutionary message which Marx ana Engels stated as a scientific principle, Debs and Russell herein deliver from the actual field of the class struggle. DANGER AHEAD. BT ECTGESE V. DEBS. The large increase in the Socialist vote in the late national and state elections is quite naturally hailed with elation and re- joicing by party members, but I feel prompted to remark, in the light of some personal observations during the campaign, that it is not entirely a matter of jubilation. I am not given to pessimism, or captious criticism, and yet I cannot but feel that some of the votes placed to our credit this year were obtained by methods not consis- tent with the principles of a revolutionary party, and in the long run will do more harm :han good.

  • Synopsis Radio Golf, August Wilson's Last Play, Is Also the Last Play
    RADIO GOLF Synopsis Radio Golf, August Wilson’s last play, is also the last play chronologically in his famous Pittsburgh Cycle. In the play we find Harmond Wilks, a man who discovers both himself and the place that birthed him at a crossroads. On the verge of an almost-guaranteed win as a mayoral candidate, Wilks finds his identity shaken when his morals and ideals are questioned by those around him. Ultimately, he must recognize what the price of his success is and decide whether he is willing to pay it. Characters ELDER JOSEPH “OLD JOE” BARLOW: Recently returned to the Hill District where he was born in 1918. Although ostensibly as harmless as he is homespun, his temperament belies a life checkered by run-ins with the law and a series of wives. He sees and calls things plainly, requires little and seeks only harmony. HARMOND WILKS: Real-estate developer seeking mayoral candidacy. He grew up a privileged and responsible son of the Hill District and intends to bring the neighborhood back from urban blight through gentrification, while making a fortune in the process. He cares about the city of Pittsburgh, the neighborhood and its people, but is caught between what is politically expedient and what is morally and ethically just. ROOSEVELT HICKS: Bank vice president and avid golfer, as well as Harmond’s business partner and college roommate. Roosevelt is preoccupied with his financial status and getting green time. He values the end result of a transaction more than the practical or spiritual virtues of a job well done.
