Mosquito-Junior

The number of innings in a complete game will be seven for Mosquito/Tyke - Junior. An inning shall be deemed to have started immediately after the last out in the bottom of the previous inning has occurred. No new inning will start after one and three quarters (1¾) hours from the first pitch. However, if a new inning starts prior to the time curfew, the inning must be completed. At the Midget and Junior levels, the curfew is set at 2 hours. If the visiting team is unable to tie or go ahead of the home team after having played the top half of an inning that extended beyond the curfew then the game is considered complete and the home team does not go to bat as they have already won the game.
