Since this has morphed into a leaving early discussion, I will share my story around the quote above:

Last year, HS Varsity game between two pretty good teams. Coach of Team B is a well known and respected Gold travel ball coach in the area. F6 of Team A plays for Coach B during the travel ball season. Game is being played at Team A home field.

Bottom of first. Team A coming to bat, F6 is leadoff hitter. Coach B walks by me and says - If she (F6) gets on, watch her leaving early. I taught her to do that, but I'll be d*mned if she's going to do it to me in this game!
