Speaking Of Coaches

[whiskers_ump]

I had one of those that see one thing, hear one thing, and don't know anything.

2nd inning, no outs, R1 on 2B. Batter hits slow roller to SS, who fields and
fires to 1B. F3 makes the catch, butttt has a pulled foot. Partner, not
sure, hollars "Pulled foot", and I replied, "Yes." Defensive coach, gets
time and goes to partner and asks "Blue, you need to get help on that play." DUH

4th inning, same coach comes by and says, "my cuz in the stands said you got
the play right."

5th inning, you got it, same coach. His batter swings at a 2-2 count pitch, the
ball hits her. "Dead Ball, batter's out." See him coming and as he his, he is
looking towards the stands. I see this guy in the stands giving him the out sign.
He retreats and goes back to coach's box.

6th inning, play at the plate. R1 on 3rd, R2 on 2nd, 1 out. Batter hits to
F6, she fires to 1B, R1 coming from 3rd, good acturate throw on the money,
which F2 cathes, blocks and tags. Hear comes Johnnnnny. "Blue that
is obstruction." "You guys told us at the coaches/umpires meeting that the defender
could not block the base." My response, yeah I know, tasteless, "Go ask your
cuz, cause that was a perfectly legal play coach."
