I had a pitcher that I called a ball on this year because for the 2nd inning in a row his shortstop was last, by a bunch, to run on the field. I called "batter", he stepped in the box and I told the pitcher to bring a pitch, he didn't and I called a ball at which point the SS came running on the field and play went on. At the half inning the pitcher tried to tell me his SS was having "intestinal" problems. I responded that I was suprized that the young lady that he was sitting next to in the bleachers hadn't gotten up and moved then if he was taking care of his "intestinal" problems in the bleachers next to her. "Oh, you saw that huh?"
They really do believe that we are blind.
