    Basic Rules of Thumb

    When slaughtering an opponent, please remember some basic rules of thumb .

    Once you are up by 10 in the 2nd inning and it is obvious that you will score much more back off.

    1. Stop stealing all bases except on overthrows and then move up only one base , but still don’t steal home
    2. Don’t bunt !
    3. Run only as far as the hit will allow, don’t "push the defense ".
    4. Don’t overcheer or rub it in
    5. Act respectfully, it will be you on the other side one day!
    6. Give kids a chance to play positions they may not have played before
    7. Sit your stars
    8. Treat the other team as you would like to be treated yourself

    These rules are basic sportsmanship. There is no need to ever run up the score.

    Did I forget any? Please let me know.
