I've been doing this umpiring thing for nearly two decades, Steve. I've seen some nasty injuries, but I'd never seen a player bleed so much a base and the dirt surrounding it needed to be replaced until last night. I was amazed the kid came out on the switch.

Oh, and welcome back, buddy.

Much ado about nothing. If all he said was what was reported I pay it no attention and let the coach continue administering to the kid. You can only look like an ogre by forcing the kid back to the plate while coach is still by his side attending to him. By the way, I would never charge a conference for this, even when rules limit the number of offensive conferences. But is there a limit in LL baseball (using modified OBR)?

Umpire says it's time to get the game moving, to which coach rat responds rather rudely:

"Hey, he's hurt. I'm just checking on him!"

"Coach, that's your offensive conference for this inning." Otherwise it will happen again.
