Which section covers rules governing pitching eligibility and substitutions?

• A. Base Running, Interference, and Obstruction
• B. Scoring, Umpires, and Time
• C. Pitching, Substitutions, and Batting Order
• D. Fielding, Equipment, and Safety

Answer: (C)

The rules about who may pitch, how many pitches they can throw, rest requirements, and how players enter and leave the game—along with how the batting order is managed—are all grouped together in a section that covers pitching, substitutions, and batting order. This is the part of the manual that specifically handles pitching eligibility and substitution procedures, including who can pitch, pitcher rest and limits, and the rules for substitution and lineup changes. The other sections focus on different areas—base running and interference, scoring and time, or fielding and safety—so they don’t address pitching eligibility or substitutions.
