The Vintage Base Ball Federation is a proposed baseball league which will play by the original rules of the game. Proposed by former Major League pitcher Jim Bouton in 2006, the rules will include:
*Six balls for a walk
*No strike count for a foul ball
*A foul ball caught on a bounce will count as an out
*A hit batsman will count as a ball and will not be awarded first base unless it is ball six

Bouton is opening the league to any amateur baseball or softball team
