  1. Was the runner sliding?
  2. What you'd like to say: Shut up idiot, you're in the dugout/Box - you have a better view then me? If I called em from where you are you'd probably be right. I'm calling the next one with my eyes closed. your pitcher couldnt hit the backstop on a good day. Coach your batter couldnt hit a volleyball with a tennis racket. get back on your bucket and shut up - you stunk when you played and now your trying for a little glory. Your kids not that good.
  3. Utrip has rules?????
  4. Showed you up. Bam - your done!!!!
  5. u 13? hhhmmmm.
  6. Yes it is, however, whens the play being made on him? When its thrown? When it gets there? when its caught? One could argue that a play is not made on him until F6 has it secured, MAYBE. if the guy throws it 86 feet above f6'S head would you have killed it? technically its the play, etc... Hey - I prob would have killed it too, not sure. I should judge not, lest I be judged.
  7. If not obstructed and the ball still goes to CF could he have had 3rd? (based on above yes, then maybe) Thats the beauty of judgement, it's yours. 10 run and you protected into 2nd? I'm assuming the offensive team was the one that scored the runs, good they don't need any more help. The only thing, i dont know if I would have killed it at that point - but had to be there. if if's and butts were candy and nuts we'd all have a Merry Christmas.
  8. 7-3-1...The batter must keep at least one foot in the batter's box throughout the time at bat. EXCEPTION: A better may leave the batter's box when: a. the batter swings at a pitch, b. the batter is forced out of the box by the pitch, c. the batter attempts a "drag bunt," d. the pitcher or catcher feints or attempts a play at any base, e. the pitcher leaves the dirt area of the pitching mound or takes a position more than five feet from the pitcher's plate after receiving the ball, g. the catcher leaves the catcher's box to adjust his equipment or give defensive signals, or h. the catcher does not catch the pitched ball. PENALTY...If the batter leaves the batter's box, delays the game, and none of the above exceptions apply, the plate umpire shall charge a strike to the batter. The pitcher need not pitch, and the ball remain live.
  9. at work no NFHS book, but if memory serves it's 7-3- X
  10. Cause if he steps out and the pitcher holds up, mid motion, he's getting a Strike called.
  11. They bump me, I'm on the ground with injuries, awaiting the ambulance. Cops are gonna get called and I'm pressing charges. I get free legal benefits at work, i'm suing these guys for all their worth. 1. He waited too long to warn. 2. He's gone as soon as he runs out of the dugout. 3. He gets this - "coach you're ejected, leave the premisses or your teams going to lose by forfeight" 4. Assistant coach gets called over. "Controll your fans or your gone next, and you forfeight." 5. As soon as I'm bumped - cops get called and they get escorted off the field. I have cops warn the fans - they do it, if you tell them you are concerned for your safety. 5. TD gets an earful and if he doesnt support me, he wont get umps anymore. 6. If I know the field, I know where the parents/coaches park. I park elsewhere. He stated he umpired for 12 years and never ejected. I find that odd. Using that and his writeup, he has perhaps created the issue himself, letting these coaches go off too often, too long.
  12. Intro Line/ups Fix the lineups Ground Rules Sportsmanship/Fairplay Any questions? Nothing else unless mandated by your assoc or league. I saw in the chain the following :You must slide to avoid contact. This annoys me to death and causes more arguements than anything. Contact must be avoided, when sliding you must slide legally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Runners can give up or veer off. Jesus, Maria, F-Bomb.
  13. Safety issue. game OVER.
  14. Sorry - any bread eaten whould be whole grain and not white.
  15. The day before the game you should drink as much water throughout the day/night as you can. If you dont have to pee, you are not drinking enough. day of the game (s), eat light, avoid greasy, fried fatty foods. I recommend Steel cut oats (the real kind) no instant. They will stay with you for a long time and are very good at delivering energy throughout the day. Also eat bananas, beef jerkey (good kind), quinoa and or peanut butter sandwiches. Drink only water, anything with sugar will cause you to crash.
  16. Heres a couple SECTION 3 BENCH AND FIELD CONDUCT ART. 1 . . . A coach, player, substitute, attendant or other bench personnel shall not: a. leave the dugout during a live ball for an unauthorized purpose; h. enter the area behind the catcher while the opposing pitcher and catcher are in their positions; j. be outside the designated dugout (bench) or bullpen area if not a batter, runner, on-deck batter, in the coach's box or one of the nine players on defense; For your league - this one, 10-4. BENCH AND FIELD CONDUCT c) Use word, act or noisemakers to incite or try to incite spectators to demonstration, or use profanity or remarks which reflect upon opposing player, umpire, or spectator.
  17. tossed 3 players in second or third, they couldnt continue - less than an hour.
  18. I like those 5 Maven.
  19. NFHS Case play - The visiting team has developed an orchestrated team action to cheer on a teammate to get a rally going. The action consists of a rhythmic series of hand claps and foot stomps. RULING: As long as the action is within the spirit of fair play, and not intended to induce a balk, create a distraction for the opposing team or intimidate/demean them, this action is acceptable. There have been some instances where a team, for example, begins to pound bats in the dugout only when the opposing pitcher begins to deliver a pitch. That action is clearly intended to gain an advantage and is not to be allowed. (3-3-1). although in the OBR verbal interference was clearly outlined, prior to the Aroid call - the players need to be aware of the situation. So for NFHS - its Int (spirit of fair play) - pro ball - nada.
  20. I can hear it now - "Come on Blue that was foul, how can you miss that?"
  21. 1 more - "That's a Balk!!! - Freshman"
  22. I would have called time. Walked over to where they were sitting. Sat down next to them then would have had the ball put in play and made the call from there. Casue evidently they had the better distance/angle.
  23. No rule exist that states this - "R2 needs to slide to avoid contact".
