Handling the Catcher

[UMP45]

Tank, when he told his pitcher "he was going to have to throw it down the middle. He's not giving us nothing" he was asking to be EJ'd. When I was working college ball I had a catcher late in the game start whining about pitches. I told him that we'd had a good game , up until now, and I couldn't give him those pitches. He persisted and I asked him "Jimmy who's the back up catcher"? He said "I understand" and everything went smooth after that. Try to shut it it down as soon as you can.
