I'm with JRut. I would probably say something like he did. If it was say a Men's league (or I was really steamed), I would be a little more stern and say to the catcher, "Hey, you'd better go tell your pitcher to cut the crap or he's going to be in for a long friggin day."

The father and son coach/pitching team may as well get tossed together. It makes the travel arrangements a lot easier.

It makes no sense. After all, you're all warmed up!:D

bad choice of words.if the catcher would not comply with the approiate warning then its the head coachs responisibly to control players and fans of that team. if there was no dicipline action taken then remove the pitcher. we should always conduct ourselves as professionals! and vulgar statements to players is immideate suspension...if they dont like it just :) remember we are the final word on the field

A coach came over to me after three innings to report a pinch-hitter, and I asked him, "Did you plan on having this pitcher go the distance?" I never even looked up from my lineup card. He walked away and went into the dugout and told the guy to keep his arms at his side and stop griping at every close pitch. The kid was a model citizen the rest of the game. And the coach has been one of the most respectful coaches I have had in the three other times I've done his games.
