I called a summer (30+ games) as a one man HS ball, one field. Because of a precise pre-game (for the Visiting Coach mainly), I had only two problems, same Coach twice. Both times it was R1/R3, R1 steal and throw.
"Blue, he missed the tag!!"
Coach, I don't doubt he did."
What are you gong to do then"
"Nothing, what part of the pre-game did you not understand regarding tolerance?"
But that was easy to see."
(Ignore)
"Blue, that was easy to see!"
(Time) "F2, go tell your Coach that will be his last comment for the game but go to F1 first and tell him why you are going over to Coach"
F1 does, Coach calls Time, "Blue, that was an easy call.......
"Game suspended."
Going over to HC, "we will replay when HC is ready to accept a one man ump. Game clock is live." Off to the parking lot, clock ticks.
