I have some experience in this area. Once in a 12-and-under girls' rec softball game, in the very first game of a newly founded league, a batter got into the box, raised her hand, and said to me, "I have to go to the bathroom."

Being a wise and seasoned umpire, I told her that she had to wait until she finished her turn at bat. She said, "OK," and play proceeded without incident.
