Which section covers when a tie is declared and how extra innings are played?

• A. WVSSAC Modifications and Administrative Procedures
• B. Official Documentation
• C. Weather Delay Guidelines
• D. Mercy Rule, Extra Innings, and Tie Games

Answer: (D)

Handling ties and extra innings is addressed in the section that covers Mercy Rule, Extra Innings, and Tie Games. This area specifically describes when a game can be declared a tie, and the rules for playing extra innings if the score is tied at the end of regulation. It also covers the mercy rule, which can end a game early under certain circumstances. The other sections focus on modifications and administrative procedures, official documentation, or weather delays, none of which directly govern tie declarations or how extra innings are conducted. So the best fit for the topic is the section that combines mercy rule, extra innings, and tie games.
