Thanks, I’d tend to agree. If you come asking/addressing, it may look like you’re picking for a fight. I’ve just had some partners mention things, so I thought I’d poll the audience. Thanks again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

As long as we’re on asst coaches, does anyone mention them in pre-game....i.e., “we’ll talk to you 2 only,” “your asst coaches do just that, assist you (HC) not us, etc, etc. Thanks for any insights. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You have to call/email them, they’ll send a series of instructions on what needs measured, and it’s $299 non-refundable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fed: 3-3-1-p. “Leave their positions or bench area during a fight or physical confrontation. PENALTY: The umpire shall eject the offender from the game.” Was it a fight...meh. Physical confrontation...yep. They didn’t come out to exchange cookie recipes. [emoji848]🧐 (The s*** of it would be if it’s gm 1 of a DH....”uh, you all were bad boys in the 1st one, but we’ll just move on to the next contest...lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Recently my plate partner busted the strip of leather holding the metatarsal plate on his plate shoes. The unicorn known as Reebok’s Field Magistrate plate shoe......If anyone runs across, or wants to sell, a size 14 (possibly 13) plz let me know. Much appreciated! PS, would also be interested in Zigs possibly. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Coaches don’t ask you where your zone is so they can go coach up their players....they do it to say “**** you, you said you wouldn’t call that” later in the game on anything borderline. You do what you want, but I don’t even dignify that question with an answer from a coach. (Dang, I’m feeling a little salty today...sorry ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Please stop giving the count as BU, unless asked for correction by partner. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Thanks! #4 is the one I always get tripped up on. Great breakdown, appreciated. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi guys, anyone have a quick reference for the NFHS DH rules? Something like a few bullet points I can put on 1/2 an index card in my lineup card holder....the great interwebs seem to only want to offer the full rule def/text. Just looking for a quick reference as backup to be preventative on the field. Thanks for your help! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Picked up a very effective mechanic at a recent camp: any time a batted ball/runner, fielder/runner, catcher/batter cross paths, and you have nothing, you should provide some information (obviously if you have the tag/INT/OBS, that call takes care of itself). It keeps the “what the hell just happened” looks and confusion from possibly occurring. I’ve had dozens of them this year and they’ve keep nearly all coaches at bay and players informed. And if done effectively it looks sharp. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not sure on pads, but a body/auto detailing shop in my city can do the hydrographic printing thing on a mask. Just remove the pads they said. Should be an easy google where you’re from. They quoted me $75 for stock flag pattern, $20-60 additional for custom pattern. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Haha wow dude, relax. I’m sorry you actually missed what my post is about. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agree with the ruling above, no issue there. Also, if runner(s) forced then I wouldn’t get an out. How about this: PB goes to a deep backstop and unforced runner cruises into 3rd....I might have a hard time getting an out as in this example no prayer for a defensive play, thus the on deck didn’t really take anything away. (And let’s not get ticky-tack on what constitutes a “deep” backstop, work with me here.) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Glad I wasn’t the only one that noticed...cuz I was sure that wasn’t there last year. My guess is other brands complained about the free tv time Wilson was getting??? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Do MLB umpire’s have specific merch. deals? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sorry, should have clarified what I meant. Since you can still have obstruction and the runner is permitted to retreat, you would be able to enforce OBS in that sense. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the skunk link! Our Assoc. has talked about this before as we have a local school who’s known for running it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If he wasn’t killing it, and it’s allegedly still alive, I can’t say he looked real ready for play @ the plate. He killed the pitch, let’s be honest. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
