Team from Dillon,SC

Did the same thing to a CBUA umpire who immediately tossed the catcher. Later an assistant coach admitted to telling them to do it. I'm not sure if Dixie Boys Majors did anything to them - it happened during a State Tournament.

Sad but folks from that area have a poor reputation.

It's the second time I've seen it happen and both times it's intentional.

Check this out.
Looks like the umpire is reserving his right to sue.

As an umpire I want to say one thing, but as a defense attorney I want to say another.
