I did it once in my first year. From what I understand, the fan was getting personal about the umpire's tattoo. The coach was told about it and immediately after turning around to head back to the plate, the fan did it again and was tossed. That's the only two that I know of in my 5 years.

Mud's checking you out soxfan

I would consider that part of his uniform and would have the out.

As someone who has worked with her, we do have her back. I've heard the crap thrown at her and it's ridiculous the level that they go to.

What a weekend between you in Dacula and me in Flowery Branch. In Flowery Branch, I know of at least 5 ejections, 4 of which were on or around my field. MC by partner, OHC in the top of an inning, OAC in the bottom of that same inning, fan by the TD who was riled up by me ejecting the OHC. A fan by another umpire.

Better at denting. check. Better at breaking. check

Why B?

One option is to do as I did on Monday. "Time! Get your foot in fair territory."

Go Janet!

Y'all are welcome to come see rush "hour" in Atlanta.

When they lollygag, I take pitches away. I had the first game of a 5 inning double header and one team had the full allotment of pitches once in the game. And twice in the double header.

I was remembering those in other states going off the preliminary communications.

try that and then rebooting

Fed has the written warning and the restriction to the dugout in the same step based on the interpretation here in Georgia.

Throw me out was after I went to him. Partner had told them in pregame that we would get together if they had a question on a call. Not something I would have done otherwise. The HC was standing off to my side when he was telling me to eject him. Low voice but some of the fans behind the plate did hear it. Once he had the one punk sentence, he started back towards the dugout, then stopped and yelled. Went and got something out of the dugout and as he reached the gate, yelled again. I don't recall what the coach was yelling, sensory overload at that point between coach, coach and player, partner was heading off the other coach. I was putting the coach in the dugout to try to calm the situation, to which he would not go, so on the third time, and after a warning I tossed him. I'm sure there was things that I could have done better, but I'm not sure that either ejection was truly avoidable.

3BC is HC, doesn't like an out call at the plate, comes and argues it, and I reluctantly agree that I will check with my partner to see if he has anything to add. Partner has nothing (the tag was away from him anyway) so I signal out, I clean the plate and he then comes back up and says "throw me out so I don't have to cuss you" get back in your dugout coach, "throw me out so I don't have to cuss you" get back in your dugout coach, "throw me out so I don't have to cuss you" get back in your dugout coach, "throw me out so I don't have to cuss you" here's your warning coach, "throw me out so I don't have to cuss you" and I toss him. He then gets right in my face "I'm not done with you yet punk". He continued his diatribe about never having seen that in all his years of coaching. TD threw a fan out during this as well. And the coach had the nerve to ask if he was going to have to miss a game during their next tournament. Also tossed an assistant from the other team for pointing and yelling at a 12U pitcher who was in his opinion, "staring down his player" who had just lined out at the pitcher. I thought the kid was staring him down but I expect more from the 1BC on the field. Should have also gotten the now acting head coach of the other team, who came running across the field towards the first base coach but I went to try to diffuse the 1BC, who upon being ordered to the dugout wouldn't go 3 times and was tossed. This was all in the same inning prior to 2 weeks ago, I had never had a baseball ejection...now I have 3

A force in 3 years won't be good news with a new park opening next year

The no offense Braves had the bases loaded and nobody out and the first two can't make contact and then a ground out. Wow do they ever suck this year.

I have liked the look of the Gold more than the Platinum. I didn't put on either today at the store but will do that if they still have both before I go back in to get one. Today was new plate shoes since the old ones are in rough shape.

Thinner than my current brick is the key. I looked at the gold and it appears to be thinner than what I have http://www.amazon.com/Champro-umpire-baseball-protector-Medium/dp/B00U9SN640/ref=sr_1_22?ie=UTF8&qid=1461954425&sr=8-22&keywords=umpire+chest+protector

Can't even imagine 40 acres. That would cost a fortune here just for the land.

I lost my grandfather to cancer so I have some idea of what he is going through, but I can't imagine losing my mother. It felt like that's what I needed to do to offer a little bit of comfort for him. I hope his dad is still doing well. He wouldn't have known me from Adam but I wanted to offer a shoulder up for you two. A chance meeting at CDP, and then bringing your gear back with me and can't help but snicker at what Darren said after I left with the two bags. Y'all are part of the extended family. The blue family.

One of our brothers recently lost his mom. He will be laying her to rest tomorrow. If you will, please keep him and his family in your prayers. Thank you.

which would make it a start/stop balk
