Here comes mine:
FP Tournament, State Teams playing each other.
Infield fly is called, but droped, runners advance.
Coach yelss something to the pitcher, who steps of, walks to 2B and wants to appeal the runner left too soon, but just sais "Appeal!". Puzzeled face, since R1 (from 2B) is on 3B and R2 is now on 2B.
Coach comes out and explains: "She did not retouch! We want to appeal that!"
"But Coach, the Ball was not caught!"
"Yes, I know, but she can't leave the base before the ball hit the ground, you called Infieled fly!"
Still puzzeled. "That woulb be for a catch, but is was no catch!"
"It's in the book. Maybe you can find some other Umpire that will explain the rule to you again!"
