10.3 - A game is over when the time limit has expired and the home is winning at the end of
the top half of the inning or when the home team is losing and finish their at bat in the
bottom of an inning or immediately when they take the lead in the bottom of an inning.

10.5 - A new half inning begins as soon as the 3rd out is made of the previous half inning

Team was losing after 3 1/2 innings.
10.9 - If stoppage is required after the 4th inning, the winner will be determined based on the
last inning both teams completed an equal number of times at bat. For instance, if the
Visitors are batting in the top of the 5th and they score 3 runs to go up 5 to 4, if the
game is STOPPED, the Home Team will be declared the winner because at the bottom
of the 4th, they were winning, 4 - 2. This is based on a STOPPED game that cannot be
completed for various reasons to include time constraints, not a POSTPONED or
DELAYED game that can be continued.
10.10 - If stoppage is required before a game can be considered "official", and the game
cannot be continued: During pool pay OR bracket play, the team winning after the last
complete inning (that was played) will be considered the winner UNLESS the Home
team takes the lead in the bottom of the inning that the game was stopped.
Example: Visitors lead 3-2 and do NOT score in top of 2nd inning, home team takes
the lead 4-3 in bottom of the 2nd but game is stopped prior to the inning being
completed; final score is 4-3 in favor of the home team.
