I had to dump a guy today, my first.
Here's the sitch. R3 comes home on a shot to right. F2 standing in line with 3rd baseline about 3 feet on the other side, well out of the way, in my opinion. R3 had plenty of space to avoid him.
R3 steps before the bases, misses it, and drills the catcher. When R3 enters dugout, I call him out for missing home, appeal not required in our LL. Hilarity ensues. After that dies down, next batter takes a pitch. THEN the first base coach catches on. He says appeal is required, catcher was in the way, he saw him touch it, everything to try and fight it. I ignore him and get ready to play. Then a guy in the stands starts in. Yelling, and screaming. I go over and ask his problem. He said I am horrible and that was a ridiculous call. Boom, he's gone.
It's amazing how much the coaches stopped chirping after that. Thanks HHH.
I didn't hear one question on a strike or ball call the rest of the game!
