Don't get me started on the way the sections are laid out in terms of trying to discern between when a batter is a batter or a runner or an "offensive teammate"! Oyyy!
It doesn't scare me that he was not told the rule set before the game. I've seen coaches not really know too often for it to surprise me.
I make sure at the pre-game conference that both the coaches and umpire/'s are in agreement as to what rules we are playing under, are we playing slide or avoid, etc. It helps avoid the inevitable sh@#house that will happen later on if you don't cover it.
I have, by the grace of (insert diety here), managed to avoid that particular error.
