Question: Do you know if there are USSSA rules allowing a pitcher to throw a certain amount of innings with one arm, and start over the inning count with the other in a different game possibly? Or has that been looked into by the larger youth baseball organizations? A: Typically, the pitch limit is per pitcher , not each arm. So, a Little League ambidextrous pitcher has the same pitch count as any other pitcher (the count does not double). This is true for most leagues that I have researched. Advice: Stick with the standard pitch count in youth leagues. This is the safe approach. Comment: I like to see a few kids pitch in games, rather than one pitcher. Kids enjoy a chance to pitch in a game, even for one or two innings. As a coach, it was a better strategy to rotate pitchers and keep the arms fresh. It also kept the hitters off balance when they had to adjust to a new pitcher. Once hitters see a pitcher a second or third time in a game, then hitting becomes easier.
