Getting Your Point Across

Quite a compliment when your assignor thinks you can handle whatever.

Funny how these nuts think you'll stop tossing after the first guy goes (or the second, or third...)

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!
