Called TAAF State tournament this past weekend. Lots of fun, even fortunate enough to get scheduled on the plate for the championship game.
On Sunday morning, the dew was fairly heavy for the 8am game. Because I knew that the ball was going to be wet whenever it hit the grass, I talked with the coaches on how I was going to handle it: live ball until Blue calls time.
Top of the 1st, two outs runner on 1b, batter hits the ball to RCF. Throw goes into 3b with the runner safe. After the safe call, F5 turns and tosses the ball to her coach and looks to me for a dry ball. The coach went from being really upset with his player to just standing there and laughing as we advance the runners. He justs looks at me and says, "You warned me, it's my own fault."
Forturnately for the F5, her team ended up winning the game.
