Understanding the DP / DEFO Rule
Starting Lineup
With DP/DEFO, you have 10 starters, not 9. Both the DP and the DEFO are starting players. The DP/DEFO must be indicated on the starting lineup. Once the starting lineup has been given to the umpire, these positions cannot be added. |

Beyond The Basics of Fastpitch Scoring
produced by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association
Introduction:
Written by Jeri Findlay, Head Softball Coach, Ball State University
Scoring in the game of fastpitch softball seems to be as diversified as the people playing it. In order to gain some uniformity, and at the same time, clear up some questions confronting scorekeepers on a daily basis, this guide has been compiled with help from the National Baseball Writer's Association College Baseball Scoring Manual (1975), the NCAA Baseball Rules (1988), the ASA Official Guide and Rule book (1988), the NAGWS Softball Guide (1988), the A.S.A. Scorers Manual (1988), and "The High Country Athletic Conference Scoring Standards." Thanks also to Joe Herandez, Sports Information, Ball State University.
