R1 on 2nd not really stealing. Defense is one of those that yells "Run her all the way back" if any runner is a millimeter off a base. Coach is clueless and crappy, parents not that much better. F2 lobs to third. F5 runs her ALL the way back (within tagging distance), turns to throw to pitcher. R1 makes to leave 2nd so F5 doesn't throw the ball.

Coach then yells at her to come back toward 3rd before throwing to pitcher (no ... he doesn't tell someone else to cover 3rd - maybe because only the 3rd baseman could catch... my shinguards know the catcher couldn't!). Of course, R1 comes a full scary yard off the bag. F5 stands there, half cocked, not throwing, R1 stands there.

Literally 10 seconds later, I mumble, "Got a chair?" to the 3B coach (they were up 11-0 or somesuch at the time) and he tells his runner to go back.

I know there are some that would call time and just end the nonsense. I'm not that guy, but I almost became that guy. This play (and the same damn play on the next 2 pitches) was typical of this yawnfest.
