Doubleheader situation

[ozzy6900]

• Timer on lights is not my problem.
• I will take 20 to 30 minutes between games of a DH.
• The league is responsible for laying down the rules of how many games a player or coach is ejected for.

Let me say this about that ejected player. If he screws up again, he's gone again! My partner excused a coach in game one. At the plate meeting for game 2, the same coach started running his mouth and I excused him for that game too. See, it's easy if the leagues don't do their job.

You are correct, Rich. However, many High Schools have adopted the rule that if you are ejected from a game, you will sit the next scheduled game also.

I ejected a pitcher in the first inning of a college wood bat summer league game about 3-4 years ago for directing a profane comment towards me about a call at 3b.

When the manager came out with his lineup for the 2nd game he asked me before handing me the lineup if it was going to be ok with me for him to pitch. I told him the last game is over and as long as he behaves I consider the case closed on the previous game. He pitched well in the 2nd game and behaved himself.

Unless there is a specific league rule that I am aware of to sit two for an ejection I don't make em up as I go.

I'll bet he was very well behaved, too, in that second game. The intelligent ones CAN be trained.

20/30 in between games
in the past i tried a few times to acomodate coaches that wanted get started right away
guess what
they were never ready
now if a coach is in a hurry i tell will be back asap
20/30 minutes later we show
50/50 if they are ready

ejected player
I don't care what they do, not my problem
if they play game 2 .... I would hope they behave because they won't be happy after getting ejected twice in one day
