First EJ of 2015

11u tourney. Cold and overcast. All weekend long we haven't enforced the white long sleeves rule. Honestly, I don't care what color the sleeves are, but rulebook says.....blah blah blah. So the HT is down by several. VT asks if their F1 can wear white sleeves. IDGAF. They're 11 and it's cold. My mistake. Lesson learned. HT HC comes out and asks about it. I said I was gonna allow it. He gets belligerent. Ignored to the point I had to shut him down and tell him to return to his dugout. He informs me that he's coaching 3B and can he go there. Coach, I don't care where you go, just go away from me. "You're a damn joke."

Youth coaches are awesome. 11U coach picking nits in crap weather about undershirts as if it's affecting his kids who have been playing baseball for two years of their lives. Good dump.

EJ'd HC stands outside the fence keeping the book. When I notice him (during a F1 change the same half inning), I tell the new HTHC that we will not resume play until the former HC is in the parking lot. SERIOUSLY? Yes sir. I'm dead serious. He is no longer affiliated with this game. Not even as a spectator. EJ'd HC takes a folding chair about 15 yards down the RF fence and sits down. I stand in X shaking my head at 1BC. Dude moves his chair 15 more yards, just outside the complex fence. I stand in X shaking my head at 1BC. By now the fans are screaming at me. Nope. Parking lot. Period. He finally goes and the game resumes. They wind up losing by a handful of runs.

Only coach I tossed last year pulled that same 15ft BS. Last game of fall ball 12u and his team hadn't won a game, frankly, his team sucked and the only reason his team wasn't run ruled was because the other team was switch hitting after the 2nd inning and let every kid pitch. I held the game until he was in the parking lot. By time it was all said and done, his own teams parents were pissed at him and offering to buy me beers after the game.

Couple of weeks ago the same coach was run by my partners on Sat. and then again on Sun. at a Utrip event. Sat. I had to tell him where he had to be, (gotta leave the facility coach). Sun. He ran up the steps and disappeared.

[MB_Ump]

I had a tourney a few months back where the rules said the ejected coach was not allowed within 3 miles of the park. They should put an ankle tracker on them and boot them out.
