Ozzy, don't blow a gasket there, kid.

You're not working these games, so don't worry about it. We're talking little kids, as they're the ones flinging bats. Eight, nine, ten year olds in the LL minors. I work down there becuase I train a lot of Junior umpires. And I'll bet none of the rest of you are, either. So simmer down, y'all.

It's really easy to "Dump the little *******s" when you don't work at that level. But when you are an integral part of a local league, and not just an umpire, you want what's best for everyone involved. Making an eight year old sit out a game because of an accidental release is stupid. Most folks would agree with that.
