I am working as the UIC and one of the umpires calls to say she will be 20 minutes late so now I have to change and jump on the field until she gets there.

 

It was a 10U girls game and I am the BU. HT is up to bat low pitch he calls strike 3 some guy in blue shirt leans out of the dugout and says "that pitch was lower than the last one and you called it a ball". He then goes outside of the dugout into the bleachers and stands behind the fence running his mouth about balls and strikes.

The inning is over and I ask the HC "is the man in the blue shirt a coach or a parent"?

 

Coach - what does it matter?

 

ME - if he is a coach he needs to stay in the dugout if he is a parent he needs to stay out of the dugout.

 

Coach - I dont know why you guys keep picking on him why do you have it out for him?"

 

ME - coach I dont know that man never seen him before.

 

Coach tells the man in the blue shirt he can't be in the dugout

 

The man in the blue shirt looks at me and says "you are a piece of sh*t" right in front of the team and loud enough for the other team to hear in there dugout.

 

ME- your gone start walking.

 

HC comes out of the dugout yelling at the plate umpire asking him why he has it out for his team? 

 

ME - coach if you will calm down I will explain things to you

 

Coach - I am not talking to you.

 

He gets in the PU face and tells him he has been against them all year and is a horrible umpire.

 

He turns around and says to me "now what do you have to say to me now"?

 

ME - your gone too please leave the dugout and find your way to the parking lot.

 

He storms off cussing me out as he is leaving calling me a piece of sh*t,

 

I get to the A position and the ump who was running late takes over.

 

I tell the GM what went on and she tells me good ejections and BTW the HC is the father of the blue shirt guy you tossed before him we get a good laugh out of that.

 

Later on I saw both coaches standing inside the fence watching the game. They see me and start kissing my a$$ telling me they were sorry etc. I said thank you for being man enough to admit you were wong.

They ask if they could come back in and I said the ejection is for the game its not a timeout. GM comes up and tells them they need to find there car and leave. As they are walking off I hear him say I told you he was a piece of sh*t.

I love it when someone says they are not trying to be rude and then are rude. If you give me your home address I can come by and read it to you

He's not being rude. Your post is nearly impossible to read.

He's not being rude. Your post is nearly impossible to read.I honestly tried twice to understand. And I have no idea what happened. Sorry, @immaculate1976 , but it's just not coherent.

Judging by the posts following mine, I wasn't alone in the inability to make sense of your OP. And give you my address ? Is that some sort of threat, or a joke ? There is nothing wrong with my reading capabilities, so you needn't bother coming by to read it to me. But thank you for the offer...

I didn't have the first problem reading and comprehending the OP. My only comment is that I would have notified someone that they were still on the premises after having been told to leave. I wouldn't have spoken to them or acknowledged them in any way. That's my  :2cents: .

 

The problem I do have here is that many of the comments following were, in my opinion, uncalled for, and some were out of line. I may not have been an Ump for many years now, but we're supposed to be a little more professional than that, aren't we? I have noticed something about a great many amateur sporting officials: Many of them have some serious attitude. I try to remind myself of Lord Acton's dictum and comport myself accordingly. A word to the wise.
