The coach was not approaching anyone - he just said something along the lines of "No! That ball hit the ground, she gets first base!"

So you think I should have just sat there and let her screw it up? Or waited for a coach to approach? If someone has a rule wrong, you have a responsibility to see it fixed. I did not expect her to have a complete lack of knowledge of the rule - she's been doing this a while. I expected her to realize her error as soon as I mentioned it. I was rather surprised to find otherwise.
