I had a baseball game years ago, 10U i think. Bases Loaded, pitcher is all over the place and goes 3-0 on the batter. The next pitch is at least a foot behind the batter and he takes a big hack. The coaches/fans all started saying "Why did you swing at that, that was ball 4" etc. at the kid. Kid steps out and yells down to third, loud enough for everyone to hear "My mom only gives me money for hits, she doesn't pay me for walks." I almost fell out on the spot. I'm sure the mom was plenty embarrassed.
