You are telling me none of you have ever sent a message with a call? I have, and I will, part of game management in my eyes.
Example:
Little league, team winning by 20+ runs, still stealing on every pass ball and taking every close pitch.
1. My strike zone grows, if they can hit it it is probably going to be a strike.
2. Anything close is a out, for the team up.
3. If they keep running, they miss a base or leave early, either way I call a one or two out. Normally the message is heard and they stop running.
Are you protecting the integrity of the game making the losing team stand in the field for 45 min? and get beat for 50?
Well I am sorry I feel that hurts the game and the kids much worst and I am willing to take a hit to my integrity for that. We all know we have coaches out there that will run the score up on there own mother. It has really nothing to do with time of the game or wanting to get home.

In this one post, you have:
- refused to accept a clearly obvious rule
- demeaned Little League and its players
- said you can judge what any batter can hit
- demeaned umpiring
- offended everyone else on this forum
