In my head! I will say, "You dumb SOB! I am only 10' from this play and you can make a better call from 150' away in the right field bleachers. What an idiot!"

In mentally telling them off, you are affirming to yourself that you are right, and they don't know what the H they are saying. You clear your mind and are ready to make the next call. I have done this so long that I don’t go through the entire scenario any more. I hear the boo birds and I immediately mentally say “Dumb F” and I move on to my next position.

Of course most of these galleries can read minds too!!! They will now know that not only are you really blind and can't make the calls at 10' that they can at 150' but you use bad language too! And then when you clear "YOUR" mind they also can see the blank slate. Usually confirmed by the non-mind readers by your blank stare!
Display confidence, look sharp, move to the next position, and after you get back in the game... Enjoy it!
