If an injury, illness or ejection occurs to the courtesy runner, another courtesy runner may run.

• A. True.
• B. False.
• C. Only if approved by the umpire.
• D. Only in the minor leagues.

Answer: (A)

The situation is about substitutions for the courtesy runner. If the courtesy runner cannot continue—due to injury, illness, or ejection—the team may bring in another courtesy runner to take over that running spot. This keeps the base running going without penalizing the offense for a temporary inability of the runner to continue. So the statement is true because the rule allows replacing a courtesy runner with another courtesy runner under those circumstances. This applies in high school NFHS baseball, not just the minor leagues, and it doesn’t require some special approval beyond the normal substitution process.
