even tho the rule was misapplied, the recourse you should take is nothing. i agree the umpire needs to know how to enforce the rule but it should not be up to a parent. the best thing for a parent to do is to focus on the basics, hitting, fielding. i have found that the more a coach or parnet is worried about the umps the more the kids lose focus on the game and also begin to focus on the umps. its time to face the facts that you are going to see some horrible calls. heck i have made horrible calls and if you ask some coaches i make them every game. parents are the reason i refuse to do any games for kids under highschool.
