Call of the year...again.
 
Has anyone ever made the same weird call over and over again throughout a given season? This year, I've called interference on the batter-runner three times for not being inside the runners lane and interfering with the defense taking a throw at first. Also, I've had runner struck by a batted fall four times, each time between first and second base.

What about the rest of you?

I had to call batter's interference three times last HS season, and had
partners call it twice more. This past season, I had four catcher's
interference calls.

I've had 2 BI's, 3 CI's, and 1 UI where my partner got hit in the middle of the diamond.

4 obstructions, 2 in one game on the same player, in consecutive innings.

I usually get 4 or 5 obstructions a week!!! It is amazing that coaches don't know enough to teach their players to stay out of the runner's way.

Do you get rats who point every time and yell "Hey look at that I hope you call something!"?
