GUYS:

This situation arose last week in a game. It has been disucssed elsewhere but input form others would be interesting.

The crux of my question pertains to a part of the arguement I was involved in. To get to the point of contention, here is a very brief lead up. I was working with a younger umpire at in adult baseball. There is an ongoing arguement between him and the coach. I get between them and put my arm around the coach to "escort" him back to the dugout. He took exception to me touching him. The incident got a little heated but nothing worse happened.

Here is my questin to you. Do you think my touching the coach is way out of bounds? If he put his arm around me to discuss something, I don't know how I would have reacted.

your thoughts guys.
