All of this in 100+ degree heat and 65% humidity, in the first inning. Easy game the rest of the way and the coaches weren't that bad, but man, it was the weirdest first inning I've ever seen.

a) I am ending this conversation ASAP; the coach doesn't know the rule.
b) Said coach does NOT get to keep jabbering about the same call 3 innings later, because he is in either the parking lot or his Barcalounger.
c) I hate to use this word, but NEVER be shocked when a coach doesn't know a rule.
