Apparently the name Celebur has nothing to do with cerebellum. If you're going to throw my fat *** under the bus, get your facts straight. Thank you and have a nice day.

How about we quote a little more of the OP:

First of all this would be legal correct? Put nine on defense and take an out everytime the girl that lefts spot came up on offense. And if so, should I have alerted him that he could do this? This seems like coaching to me.

Read it again. . .slowly. Very slowly.
When Shipwreck wrote,
"First of all this would be legal correct?", he isn't asking whether it's legal for the fan to notify the coach! He's asking whether the fan is correct. In other words, is it legal to
"Put nine on defense and take an out everytime the girl that lefts spot came up on offense"?
Shipwreck next asks whether he (i.e. the UMPIRE) should, if this is correct, have told the coach this. And he concludes by mentioning that this seems like coaching to him, which means he recognizes that the umpire is not there to coach.
Now to your post:

This is more looking for boogers.
If the person was up in the bleachers or behind the backstop giving some kind of signals, calling pitches or something, we've got a different deal. Of course if you call something like that you gotta make sure you have your ducks in a row.

It appears to me that you were interpreting Shipwreck's question as one regarding whether it was legal for the fan to advise the coach on what he should have done. If I mis-read your post, then sorry. But if you really did take it that way, then it looks like you threw your fat *** under the bus all by your lonesome.
You're welcome, and yes, I am having a nice day. Very nice indeed.
