“Well then that’s interference!” he shouts. To which I calmly rely, “There was no obstruction on the play the catcher had the ball.”
Irfreakingrelevant...if I took that posture and someone accused me of making a safe call, my response: my arms never extended, and I never made the verbal call.

Coaches who use the wrong terms when arguing a call need to be shot and mounted for all to mock.
