Agree with Dakota on the lack of understanding, especially the use of white by defense on foul ground plays, and even BU calling outs for touching white when there is no play. Also agree with IM on coaching and mechanics, but I'm convinced it's usually safer and hope it stays.
What is really a pain is the imaginary home plate "line" used by seniors and now some corec. It can be difficult to get a line of sight when the throw is coming from 1st or you are alone and the previous play was at a base. Not to mention getting used to the wide turns and foul ground base path from 3rd to home.
