Coach: Why, what's he doing?

Umpire: Coach, he is advising these young ladies to place their health in jeopardy. Besides, I've had enough of him screaming at the catcher. He told her to PUSH me. Coach, do you know what happens to a player who intentionally pushes an umpire?

Coach: But you cannot just stop the game.

Umpire: Coach, go check your rule book. When you find the paragraph that states that I, the umpire, MUST umpire this game, you let me know. Until then, BigMouthDad needs to go.

Obviously, this would not (or should not) take place in Championship Play. At that level, the TD or UIC should help keep this type of situation in check.

Thanks, Mike.

I will do that next time, I get into. HA HA
