Yes, I can....
Varsity game a couple years back, we are getting continuous static from the visitors dugout. V'sB1 takes a mighty cut and cracks his knuckles on the ball; takes off running. I'm yelling TIME!, DEAD BALL! IT HIT HIM at the top of my lungs; and here comes the visitor's head rat: "Hands are part of the bat, Blue!" "You're kidding me, right, coach?" "NO- THE HANDS ARE PART OF THE BAT!" "Not this bat [holding up Exhibit A]. Count is 2-2."
