Here is another to add to the list. I had a runner going to first last night, ran the entire distance in fair territory, on a shallow hit to right field. Throw comes in from outfielder and hits the runner after she had crossed first base. Coach came out and asked if the runner was not in fair territory, and I agreed with him that she was. He said, "so she's out, isn't she?" I said, "no coach, that is only if she interferes with a throw." His reply?? "Well the ball hit her, didn't you see it?"

My jaw nearly hit the ground. I thought, then, that maybe he was just kidding, but he kept asking me to go to my partner for help. I tried to explain how the rule works to him, but I just don't think he believed me.
