At that age, it would really pi$$ me off if the catcher didn't even attempt to move his glove and I took a straight shot on the arm.
I would dust the plate and tell him, "You better move and attempt to block everything. You don't move again, and I'll take it as you doing it intentionally and I will toss you!"
I'd also nicely let the coach know about it in between innings.

Well I am certainly wiser than this man. It is only too likely that neither of us has any knowledge to boast of; but he thinks that he knows something which he does not know, whereas I am quite conscious of my ignorance. At any rate it seems that I am wiser than he is to this small extent, that I do not think that I know what I do not know. ~Socrates
