Coach appeals leaving early at third. I call the runner safe. Coach asks me to get help from my partner. I explain this is not an option. She tells me, "In Florida they told me you had to go for help if I asked you to."  I explain that is only for a checked swing. She reiterates what happened in Florida. I rebut, "Coach, what happens in Florida, stays in Florida."  She thanked me graciously for doing my job to her satisfaction and we moved on. |
Maybe you should haven given here directions to the nearest airport which has an airline which flys to Florida
