Umpires are instructed to inform teams when the Time Limit is approaching.  If a game is tied and there is time left then extra innings can be played. All extra innings start with the last batter up on 2nd base. NEW *if a game is tied and the 70min time limit has been reached, the game can continue until a winner has been declared.
