No. If I see that kind of behavior, here's what will happen.

First, I kill the play. Your player is no longer engaged in playing softball.

Next, I make my OBS award. The runner gets the base that, in my judgment, s/he would have gotten had there been no OBS. Any other runners that were affected by the OBS will also get their awarded bases.

After that, I'm tossing your player for USC.

Lastly, if I believe that the coach told her to do that intentionally, the coach will be following her on the way out.

That sounds about right to me.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
