These are 11/12 year olds. At that age I am not about to make them catch the pitch the "right way;" I am looking for strikes. Neither is any other umpire good enough to be picked for a Regional.
Sounds a little like the parent I had wondering why I was calling strikes on pitches caught near the ground...in a 9/10 game.
