Not saying it was right, just tellin ya what my Ps explanation was.
I guess your P needs to learn a little more self control.

When ever a discussion starts, let the coach say his peace. This gives you time to listen, and compose your response to just the facts, keep it as simple as possible, and supportable from the rules and interpretations.

The game of baseball is a managed conflict between two teams. The umpires are the only ones who are observers, so we need to keep our cool all the time.
