During the pre-game, I told the HC that would not be allowed, he said it would, I warned him and as soon as the first player ran, I ejected him. The second player. I called the game.

On the way out, the HC caught me and asked me what was my authority on his field. Walking away I told him if he wanted 4 strikes to be an out instead of three, he could post this but I wouldn't call it that way.

When we returned, there was the sign "The home team will be allowed four strikes per batter."

At which point we got in our cars and left.
Yeah, right! What dream was this in?
