Losing coach to ask for game to be ended with no penalty.

Never had a coach give up, but more than a few games have ended after 2 1/2 innings.

Florida HSAA is strict about their decision to have only a 10-after-5 run rule. A few years ago the coach on the losing end of a 23-0 game offered to end it after 3. It was getting dark. The umpires, who should have known better, allowed it. We had to get the teams and umpires back together on a different day to finish the 29-0 massacre.
