Had a 15U game tonight. After the visitors bat in the first, the home coach comes up to me and says "You don't call the pitches on the corners"? I say "If she hits the corner, I'll call it". Then he says, "She's hitting them, you're not calling them". I say, "That's enough coach". As he's walking away, about halfway down to the 3rd base coaches box, he turns and points at me and says, "You BETTER call them both ways". That's when I tossed him.

It's bad enough he's arguing balls/strikes, but arguing about pitches that haven't even been thrown yet?

My partner informs me later that his daughter was the pitcher.

If this coach's team is on the short end of a run-away game and
he does not cuss, I am leaving him to suffer. Lot of coaches
just want out of a bad situtation. Toss him, and he feels he has
accomplished something. Close game and cussing, I got one less
coach.
