12U A state tournament. I'm PU. Line drive to the side of F1's head. Ball deflects off her shoulder into the 1B dugout. F1 goes down, is laying on the ground grabbing her head, crying. I declare dead ball (both for serious injury and ball out of play - take your pick). BR continues to 2B. Defensive coaching staff & many team members clustered around F1 tending to her.
Offensive coach (3B coach) yells for a ruling on where BR should be. I ignore him (plenty of time for that) as I watch to see if the girl will be OK. He continues to ask. After the third time, I tell him.
What sensitivity, coach!
