i saw a weird one today in a girls 10u tournament game

the home plate ump cleaned the plate by tilting it up then he replaced it about 6" up the first base line.

the pitcher was having a little trouble throwing strikes and one of her coaches asked the ump between pitches if he would move the plate back to the proper position.

the umps response was to ask the coach to move to the other end of the dugout.

he actually left the plate out of position until after a play at the plate , when he cleaned the base again, and moved it to its proper location.
