Cranford baseball says pitch-count violation should lead to Group 3 final forfeit

Some 10 hours after losing the Group 3 baseball state championship game, Cranford has protested the game to the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association, claiming that Middletown North’s starting pitcher went over the 110-pitch single-game limit set by the state’s governing body.

The NJSIAA rules state that a player can throw a maximum of 110 pitches, only legally exceeding the limit to complete the at-bat during which the 110-pitch limit is reached. In a 10:22 p.m. email to NJSIAA chief Colleen Maguire obtained by NJ Advance Media, Cranford athletic director Darren Torsone writes, “The game is being protested as there was a violation of the NJSIAA baseball pitch count rule during the game when the Middletown North starting pitcher exceeded the maximum number of pitches allowed in a game.”

When reached via email on Sunday morning, the NJSIAA released a statement to NJ Advance Media saying: “At this point we have reached out to all parties involved requesting further information.” McCaffery said that those discussions uncovered a discrepancy for the first inning between between Cranford’s count and the official count.

According to NJSIAA rules: “Umpires are reminded they are not to suspend or terminate any game for pitch count rule violation. Schools are responsible for reporting use of ineligible pitchers to the NJSIAA.”“I have a responsibility. These are the rules, and everyone has to follow the rules,” McCaffery said. “The pitch count is for the safety of a player’s well-being.

Yay! We won the championship Bc the other team went over the pitch count!! WAAAAAAAAAAA!

NJSIAA needs to take a hard look at this shady situation.
