Your down 20-3 in a HS level or below game. The other coach keeps all his starters in the game to pile up the score. They are stealing bases left and right and your going to tell me that it will upset you if a umpire "made a decision based on what the score is. Get Real!
Sometimes you have to face truth and realize that the team or the coaching, SUCKS! As a coach, you are there playing many roles to support your team, as a leader, parent and buddy. Not only are you teaching your players to win but, you should be teaching them how to face losing, with out accepting it.
Hell. not only would I make that call but, I have most likely already expanded my strike zone and possibly relaxed calling most balks.
If you can't understand the fact that it is STILL only a game at that level and below and are getting upset with a umpires "necessary" call at that part of the game, then maybe, you are coaching for all the wrong reasons.
It would be great if the world was just Black and White but, it never has been.
