So, I only hope you are attempting to say what I think.

If you had called safe and yelled "ball is on the ground", then there would likely have been little incident. You would not have had to listen to the crapola from the stands, and would not have had to request assistance from the coach.

If so, I agree............SELL THE CALLS that need selling.

Dont' sell calls that don't need selling.
That is like crying wolf, and is not needed.


Just my opinion,

Agree!

In this case the guy in question has been trolling around behind the plate all season. This was a prime opportunity to shut him up and have the coach put him in his place.

I sold the call very hard without make the "ball's out" statement. Others in the stands understood the sit as well.

Good advice though, I will use that in the future.

Thanks
