This wasn't so much dumb as it was unprofessional.
HS FP JV game, 2nd game of a doubleheader. Red team took first game and was batting in the bottom of the 3rd, with 2 outs, in the 2nd game. They batted around 3 times and the coach was still sending runners 1st to 3rd as well as from 2nd to home on all singles. Red team must have opened up a lead on the Green team of about 25-2 or something like that. Green team wants time and elects to change pitchers.
As the infielders were huddled around the P plate, I walked in as the BU and informed them that the last scoring runner missed 3B. The SS asks me how to appeal the play, I tell her, and I ring up the 3rd out.......finally.
Mind you the weather wasn't that great. Overcast, High 40's, very strong wind. No one wanted to be there.
I went home that night telling myself I did what I did for game management.
