Glen,
Are you remembering my telling of my first women's game???

A number of years ago, I was only umpiring men's fastpitch when I was asked to work some women's games. During one of those games, I had a batter foul the pitch & the foul hit her while she was still in the batter's box. My call went some thing like "Dead ball, Got 'er in the box." Loudly enough so that all play stopped. The batter turned to me & said "No Ump, it got me on the leg." I was unable to do much of anything except stand there feeling dumb, numb, & bright red. Needless to say, that was the last time I made that call.

Steve,
Exactly the play I was thinking of and hoping you would come forward and
present it again for all the 'newbies'. Thanks. I did not want to
steal your story.
