What I typed above are his grounds to protest the game...
When I posted it, I had just got off the phone with the UIC. Basically its a complaint and a protest and notice he would not play any games I umped - which is STUPID.. since I havent seen another ump over the age of 17 in this league yet (except the UIC). I think the coach might be used to pushing umps around.. I have a sense that it looks very bad on me.. they dont know me.
I agree its a shame about the coach and his attitude.
Here is an exchange, paraphrased, but pretty close".
Coach: "She did not collide with the catcher, she slipped on the plate hitting the catcher. I hope you know she was injured"
Me: "You realize if she had slid she probably wouldnt have been injured right?"
Coach "Yeah well she didnt slide".
Me: "I know. That is why I called her out, this is exactly why they have the rule. You should teach them to slide on a play at home."
Coach "Well I am protesting this game"
I'm really aggravated right now.
Now the good part is I might get moved to the 14U games instead of these 12U games.. but I'm still aggravated.
