When you completely change the topic of a thread, that is called hijacking the thread. You really should have posted this as a new topic. But, since you didn't, and in the spirit of polite response to new posters...

Then how can you possibly complain about a ruling?

Anyway, last night in 14U a pitched ball hit the ground in front of the batter and then hit the batter (who attempted to jump over the ball) in the ankle. Umpire calls a dead ball, but wouldn't award the batter first base. Her ruling was that the batter wasn't entitled to first base because the ball hit the ground first.

In slow pitch, the ball is dead if the pitch hits the ground prior to reaching the plate. Maybe she was a slow pitch umpire.
