This is a generalization, but ...

When I am BU, I don't jump into my pard's game. If he wants to let participants rag his zone, he's making his own bed.

Sometimes, if I feel there is overt gesturing going on (a personal peeve) at PU's work, I will inform him, only if he cannot see it. Every field is laid out differently. On some diamonds, it's easy for weasels to hide from PU's view and put on a show.

I even jumped in once, in a 3-man game (I was U3), where U1's work was being physically ridiculed by multiple coaches in 1B dugout (between innings, with U1 down the RF line). I deemed the gesturing overly large and prolonged, which got the fans going.

But, in general, I am with Fronny. Let each of us pick his battles; jump in only when reinforcements are necessary.

Ace
