Classic nice guys finish last story ...

High school JV games where I'm from start no inning after 1:45 (or at least they're not supposed to). Working the plate on a nice Saturday afternoon for a JV doubleheader. 1st game goes without incident. Second game is 16-2 after 4 for the home team, and the time limit had run out. Visiting coach asks if we can play it out, being it's a nice Saturday and he wants his kids to get a couple more swings in .. chances are that it's over after the 1/2 inning anyway. I ask the home coach if he's ok with that (Yes, I know I shouldn't have done that) and he said that was fine (as he wanted to get his pitcher some more work). Visiting team scores 6 in the top of the 5th and comes back to win 21-17 in 3:15 for a 7 inning game. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY !!!
