LL Coaches in my area are stupid, for the most part. I had a coach argue with my ruling last night that a batted ball that passes through the legs of a fielder and hits his runner does not cause him to be out, since it had passed a fielder. I called no out, since it passed a fielder. He argued with me, even though the call was FOR his team. This is also the coach who told me that his player should get home for interfering with the fielder in the baseline (I mistakenly called obstruction, but no penalty since runners all reached one base past where they were).
Where do they find these people? This coach has been coaching town and traveling league for close to 20 years, and he doesn't know the rules?!? What the heck is that? Are these people mentally retarded or what?
Just needed to vent a little after a rough night last night. Do you guys have the same problems in your area?
Edited to clear up confusion on my call.
