I may have told this one before, but it fits here....
I'm working solo, 12u rec league....RH batter checks her swing as I call a ball.
Some smart-a** yells out...."go for help, Blue!"
I whip off my mask, step out, point at the first base coach, and say..."did she go?" He immediately yells back "YES!" and gives me a strike signal.....then realized what he had just done, the look on his face was priceless.
I just shrugged my shoulders, thought "OK", and ring up a strike on my indicator.
