I HAD THE EXACT SITUATION YOU ARE TALIKNG ABOUT 1st BASE COACH WAS COMPLAINING AT START. HIS PITCHER COULD NOT FIND THE STRIKE ZONE THE WERE DOWN 5 RUNS. AFTER THE END OF THE INNING HE SAID MY STRIKE ZONE WAS LIKE THE MAJOR LEAGUES AND I SHOULD REMEMBER THAT THIS IS HS. I TALK TO THE HEAD COACH TOLD HIM ABOUT HIS ASST. COACH. ONLY WARNING HE WAS GOING TO GET. TOP OF SECOND INNING HIS BATTER COMES UP TO THE PLATE I RUNG HIM UP ON STRIKE THREE ON OUTSIDE CORNER. WELL HE WAS LIVID JUMPING UP AND DOWN SCREAMING THAT IT WAS OUTSIDE.
I CALLED TIME LOOKED AT HIM GAVE HIM THE HEAVE HO. THE VARSITY COACH THANKED ME AND SAID HE DOESNT KNOW WHY MORE UMPIRES DONT DO THAT. HE HAS BEEN THAT WAY ALL YEAR THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME HE WAS TOSSED. DONT BE AFRAID TO TOSS A COACH ONCE YOU GAVE A WARNING IF YOU WANT TO GIVE ONE.
I HOPE THIS HELPS IT SURE DID WONDERS FOR MY GAME. THERE STARTING PITCHER SETTLED DOWN AND IT ENDED UP 5-4 FINAL.
