In this case, the call was easy to make. the one ultimately responsible is the coach, as he told the runner on third to go home on an overthrow, when the game was a blowout.

that is what is upsetting. why would a coach risk injury to either player when the game is over ( 20 to 6). I have officiated many other games with scores like that and the good coaches stop letting players steal or move on overthrows. They want the game over!!!

that is why it was upsetting to me, and why i wondered if other umpires get bummed out over this type of play calling.
