Too funny, KF.
BTW gang, I had a walk-off walk this year and B1 "almost" went into the dugout. You had to see F2 chase him to first trying to tag him, which he did, with no call from me.
Losing coach: (Who, considering all factors, was quite reasonable) "My player tagged the kid."
Me: "Well, he touched the batter-runner with the ball, It wasn't a tag."
Coach: "What?"
Me: "You may tag someone only if he is in peril of being thrown out. You can't tag a runner on his way to first after a walk."
Coach: "Then the batter was out of the baseline."
Me: "A tag play must be in progress to call a runner out of the baseline."
Coach: "Right. My kid tagged him."
.. and so on.
Logic that would give Thomas Aquinas a stiff neck.
