I did an invitational tourney game in which both teams would be described, kindly, as weak.
Both coaches indicated to me that they would not be unhappy if the strike zone were expanded so that thye would get finished and on their way more quickly.
I said yes. Big mistake.
Fourth pitch of game, off.coach starts b!tch!ing about my zone.
Next half-inning, other coach b!tches about zone.
Long story short, ended up dumping both managers and one assistant.
Never, ever again.
