Couple of pitches later the batter chops the ball and heads toward first -- partner gets his 45 or 60 -- and beautifully whips his cellphone from his right ear -- transfers it to his left hand so he can give the big round house out w/ the right -- then turns around and heads back down the line still talking on the damned phone

Me and the catcher plotted that on the first swinging strike that I was gonna call a ball and she was gonna ask for a check swing appeal but I guess the dude's cell phone powered down before we got the chance

So anybody else got stories of amazingly poor professionalism to share?
I refer you to thread Shorts and Flip-Flops: Shorts and Flip-Flops.
