When you cant get "anything right" in beer league...

Tough night in the beer league... lets see..

1. 2 bang bangs but outs on plays at the plate... 1 for each team so they considered me doing a maker upper on the 2nd one..

2. Bases loaded 1 out and a F6-F5-F3 double play on super slow BR and fast R1 - they wanted the R1 run... they didnt get it.

3. Out on an arching (but not "over the head") out that they thought should be a foul tip.. I'm not sure you really get too many foul tips in slow pitch just because of the way the game is, but this was an out.. horrible call blue, thats a foul tip it wasnt over his head..

4. Runners on, 2 outs, deep grounder.. run scored and they got the 3rd out on the bases on a tag play.. they felt because I didnt let the run score in Situation 2 above, I shouldnt have let this run score.

5. Slide Play at 3B, F5 drops the ball - safe.. "he kicked the ball out of my glove he was out".

6. Liner around F4 who throws his glove and misses the ball. "Hey blue he threw his glove" .. so I explain the rule and consequences of making contact "whatever blue".

7. Shot down 1B line to out field, chalk in the air.. clearly fair. F2 "Blue that was foul" Me "hey you saw the chalk in the air like I did thats fair"

I'm now officially the worst beer league umpire they have ever seen.

lol

Don't plan on holding the trophy long. They will crown another next game!

Believe me, I feel your pain.

Group hug, anyone?

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
