This is a "conversation" I had with 18 year old select team catcher a couple of years ago when I called time after he indicated to his bench that a breaking ball I called a ball, was a strike.

"Son, we're like family back here. You and I are the only ones dumb enough to wear the tools of ignorance and stand here and let people throw baseballs at us. Like family, we keep our disagreements between us. If you feel the need to take our disagreements outside the family, there's likely to be a divorce and one of us will have to leave. Do you understand what I'm suggesting?"

Not a peep the rest of the game.
