Called an IP, coach yelling "NO WAY" from dugout. After a few more, while running in and out of the dugout, he informed me "she is a PIAA pitcher", then "72 games never illegal".

Should I have said:
"I don't care if she pitches for Team USA, crow hops are illegal"
or
"71 bad umpires"?
I almost had to bite my tongue.
