The only reason those rules are in place in baseball is to prevent injury. Now managers have a pitcher for every situation possible which is absurd. Injury is not an issue with softball pitchers so no reason to limit innings just so they have to play more pitchers. If one pitcher can dominate the game then play her every inning you can.
Quite frankly with pitchers frequently pushing 65-70 mph, maybe the mound should be pushed back 10 feet for not only more competitive at bats but also pitcher safety. A line drive to the face off a 65 mph fast ball will sting a little.
