Situations

[zm1283]

This is a tough one for me. On one hand, the player needs to be dumped, but on the other hand, you don't want to step on your partner's toes and try to handle his business for him. In a college game, I would hope a partner would have the cajones to just dump him. With certain high school partners, I know some of them wouldn't do it, but I still would have trouble doing it from that far away. Either way, I don't like the "silent ejection".

I pictured the PU 45' up the line trailing the play -- so I'm not picturing the "100 feet away" scenario you folks are.

Likewise, I've had partners ring up batters and walk away only to have the batter have a meltdown that required an ejection. I feel it's unfair to my partner to not be there for that one, too.
