I had a kid miss first base on a double by at least 6 inches. I was in A, pivoted in, and saw it clear as day. I took the runner into second base. As I begin to move to my C position for the next play, the first baseman yells over, "UMP HE MISSED 1st!" This is an AAU 15 game for goodness sake. I totally ignore him, the first base coach is yelling at me "No he didn't! No he didn't!" All the while people in the crowd start to get into it, and I'm just standing in C waiting. The pitcher was waiting as well; eventually my partner gave a couple of claps towards the pitcher to get the game going again, thank god. One of the more stupid moments of my umpiring career so far.
15 AAU, and nobody knows how to appeal?
