There is a break in the action, I ask the coach, "Why are you calling your player horrible? Don't you think you would get better results if you encouraged her with positive comments?" Good thing the first baseman was not drinking milk at the time, I think we would have seen it coming out of her nose.

"You're horrible" is a personal insult and an ejection, not a time for a witty barb. The fact that an Asst Coach said it makes it all the more certain that the offending party leaves and now.
