I've heard coaches make the same claim and, IMO, it doesn't belong to them, either.
I agree, the "game" of softball is not owned........however, IMO "the game" on the field belongs to the players.
Umpires are merely observers with decision-making authority. |
Agree 100%. Would add that the field/game does not belong to the TD or the 6 board members watching the game (rooting for opposing teams) either. It's about the players.
