Template:Cite-mlb-rules

From SABR Encyclopedia

This template will create a link to the official rules of Major League Baseball, hosted at Baseball Almanac. This template links to the copy at Baseball Almanac because it is an accurate copy, officially permitted by the League, and because MLB's own website only has the rules available in PDFs, which are awkward and do not allow linking to individual rules.

The Baseball Almanac rules do not allow linking to individual rules yet, but they will soon.

The template works in the following format. This example would render a link to rule 6.05(f) (a batter is out when hit by a pitch on a swinging third strike):
