Batter Out Of Box?



Tim.
Amusing and the official kept getting hisself in hot water.

As Bob already commented, everyone accepted the playing field in the given condition at the begining of the game. The umpire should have reminded the coach of that right off the bat. Then limited the discussion but, choose to come with statements that kept him in hot water.

I would have not let it go that far myself so chances are real good that I would not have had to throw out the coach. Rule book or not.

Of course I am not quite sure I would have called the kid out either. Controversial box. Get rid of some lines.
