Shame on the umpires for not knowing the rule. Shame on the Rochester coach for abusing what little, inaccurate knowledge she has.

The problem is you just cannot ignore rules for "feel good" reasons. And it isn't because I believe in the Grinch, but because it becomes extremely difficult to draw that "good hearted" line.

Most umpires are aware that no good deed goes unpunished. Want to get into a jam? Work your games and try to be Mr. Niceguy. It will be appreciated until about the 5th inning.
Its good to know that I was correct then. I do whole heartedly agree with the mr.niceguy thing too. working with guys like that gets people in TROUBLE
