Working a 12U fastpitch game, bases loaded, 2 outs. Forget the score, but it was close, late in the game and the team at bat was behind.
Batter swings at the dropped third strike (which passes the catcher) I call batter out, first is occupied.
Realized my mistake immediately, but surprisingly coaches didn't catch the error, so I let the inning end. Saw no way to correct the error that wouldn't make one of the teams go crazy.
Now, regardless of the age group, I simply call strike three. With younger kids, I usually then watch as the batter gets around the bases on errors.
