The problem I've been having is catching all kinds of grief when I insist that a coach warming up a pitcher at homeplate wear a mask. I've had two heated argumentswith different coaches that say the rule says shall, and not must, so it's an option. I told the last guy that the Bible says thou shalt not steal, not thou must not steal, so he'd better consider my directive a commandment.

This is worth multiple heated arguments?



Stand on the plate until coach gets a mask. Then enforce the time limit for change overs. I fail to see either the problem or the relevance for argument. YMOD.
