There is one field I'm at frequently that has a concession stand right behind the plate, with the second story being the scorer's area. Quite often the scorer will complain about things including pitches. (Amazing that he can tell they're too low when he is 20 feet off the ground.)

He thinks he is doing play-by-play, announcing the count, stating things like "good play by the pitcher from either team" and of course announcing each batter by name. He is always professional on the mike, but likes to fuss otherwise. When he's not on the mike, I just consider him another fan and ignore him.
