Coach's Lament?
State tournament, umpires instructed to make the calls they see, IP or otherwise.
LH slapper gets call out for being out of the box in first game of the first night.
Coach comes up to me and gives me his travel itinerary, "I've been to Colorado, Florida, Ohio, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, and NO ONE ever makes that call".
"Coach, was the call inaccurate?" "I've been to Colo........"
"But, Coach, was the call correct?" "No one makes that call, I've been to..."
Whatever!
Following night, guess who gets called out for being out of the box by an umpire who was not there the night before?
Just curious if these coaches really think that we believe their stories?
