I had a coach tell me that a pitched ball was dead the minute it hit the ground, right after a batter hit one of his pitcher's bounced offerings for a single.

I told the coach, 'ok Coach, next time one of your player's scores from third on a passed ball, I'll send him back".

He got a look on his face like he just ate a lemon. He said, "nevermind" and walked back to the bench.

And guy's, sometimes a little "roasting" in this environment IS constructive. What we do is about poise and pride, and that is sometimes challenged here and more importantly challenged in real life.
