Batter not vacating on play at home
 
How do you deal with a batter who will not move for an upcoming passed ball play at the plate? I wonder if this method would work: YouTube - Ump takes a kid out!

nothing. if he affects the play call interference.

A year old, beat to death here and on other boards.

Wait a minute, I thought I saw the ball hit his bat, just before the ump sent him to the showers.

We may be able to call interference!

Yeah...that's the ticket
 
I myself am a firm believer in slinging the beejesus out of the batter, normally resulting in a concussion up against the backstop fence (if I aim really well and his head hits a fence post). Why do you insist on replaying my video?

You must be the ONLY person on this board who could possibly think I was serious.

Must of been when you were down to 150 pounds.

This video is much older than anyone realizes. What we are witnessing here is a very small SDS at the very last LL game he ever PLAYED. He was so traumatized by how the umpire flung him backwards, he never played again. However, he, at that point, dedicated his life (evenings and weekends) to better the umpiring community so this does not happen again.

Didn't "Canada Dump" post this same video a couple of years ago?

cc6 IS candaump6, seemingly an example of one year's experience three times, rather than three years' experience.

I remember being confused when he first came on the boards claiming, in two different posts, both that it only took a game each seasion to perfect his strike zone back, and that he was preparing for his first game.

The boy is an enigma.

A mystery wrapped inside an enigma.:D
