Agreed. I had a batter pop his knee cap out of place on a swing. He hit the ball to an infielder who threw him out at 1B. After that, then I called "Time" and we waited on the ambulance before continuing on with the game. He was the 3rd out. His knee wasn't going to look or feel any better.

The worse part about it was the kid decided to take a cheap shot at me. He said "It wouldn't have happened if I didn't have to swing at it b/c of the pitch before it." Which he thought was low but no one else agreed with him, especially not me. The one he swung at would have hit the ground at F2's feet.
