The rule of thumb is what I was looking for, but all the other information was very helpful.
We're most of the way through our season now. Lately in our 18U group, some catchers are intentionally blocking the plate and some runners are intentionally running over them (and I believe that they are being coached to do exactly that).
Unlike Joel, several of these coaches have none of these girls as their own and are not quite as protective of them as they should be.
So we're trying to crack down on this behavior before someone does get carried off by the EMT's. And we want to be as accurate on our calls as possible which is what prompted the question.
No question as to my longevity in the sport with a total of 12 games under my belt, but as in all sports, our group has its share of "Know it alls". I listen to what is said, but I feel more comfortable with the answers I get from this discussion board.
Thanks guys!
Chuck
