Adult league game, my team is on the field. R1. Ground ball to second baseman who overthrows first base and throws it out of play. Plate umpire sends R1 to 3rd and BR to 2nd. Immediately upon hearing the call, young first base coach starts yelling very disrespectfully at 65+ year old umpire, including the phrase "I am a former umpire!".

Adult baseball.... might-have-beens, wannabees, and never-weres.
Anyway, we've talked a bit about the reaction of the umpire and his useless partner. What I want to know is: what's the deal with the idiot 1B coach? Am I missing something, because it sounds like the call was correct, so what the h3ll was his problem?
And from the stories you've told, and other Canadian posters have mentioned, what's the deal up there? Is it just because you guys can finally go outside without freezing to death, that players/coaches lose their minds on the field? Or is pent-up aggression from watching the Stanley Cup playoffs? Holy smokes!
