Situation; 2nd game of high school DH, it was a long day of poor weather and not-so-good baseball. Score at the bottom of 5th was 11-3 with the home team winning. Pitcher walked the bases loaded, then a pass ball...score is now 12-3 with runners at 2nd & 3rd. This is when the catcher turns to me and says, "Hey Blue, one more pass ball and we're outa here!"

I'm not going to tell you how, but the game ended with then next pitch.

Hmmmmmm. A passed ball is the catcher's fault. Hmmmmmmm.
