Together at last at twilight time

It's time of year again when our schedule takes a serious ramp up!  June 4th is Twilight Time!  (Lord Willin’) 

With twilight time comes added responsibility for the 6:30 and 7:30 games managers on the unlit fields.  

For 6:30 gamers, your job is to get the game going at 6:30 or even a few minutes earlier.  Golden Rule applies here!  Once underway, keep the game moving quickly, especially between innings. 

Remember that the 2 and 2 count is mandatory at top of the 5th. 
Remember the lower slaughter (13 run lead at end of 4, 5 or 6) and remember the ‘firecracker’ rule of 20 or more runs at end of 4, 5 or 6. 

7:30 managers, it behooves you to arrive early, even before 6:30, in order to politely prod things along at the 6:30 games so that your game starts as early as possible at the conclusion of the 6:30 game. IF you run out of daylight and cannot play a full 7 innings, the games is NOT over, it is suspended and to be continued at a time and place agreeable to both parties
