Please step aside, the king of the worst call still reigns.

I'm working a Jr College game a few years ago, I'm BU, batter hits a line drive in the gap for an easy double, as BR is rounding second, she bumps into F6 just kind of standing there watching the ball being thrown back into the pitcher. I put the left arm out to signal obstruction. BR returns to second. SInce this was the first year of the "rounding and returning" obstruction rule in NCAA, I call out to my partner that I have an obstruction warning on F6. Here comes the defensive coach.... What was that call? Obstruction, coach..on your shortstop. The runner bumped into her after rounding second. He looks at me like he wants to say something, but can't find the words. He asks F6 - Where were you? (like this makes a difference) He looks at me again and starts to say something, then turns to go back to his dugout. About halfway there, he stops, turns around and yells at me..."Don't abuse the rule!"

Did you go through the unfortunate episode called "break-up" with your partner? In case you did then what was the reason(s) for break up? Did you find out something bad in your partner or did some external event brought about that?

Gosh, I'm glad you asked. It was a dark and stormy night one December afternoon when my partner called me over to the sofa. As we slept in the dining room, she broke the bad news. It was something bad in my partner's external event that we just could not fix no matter how we bounced the ball in the pool.

I called a couple games tonight and made the “worst call ever”. First batter hits and reaches 1st safely. As the pitcher begins her windmill motion, the runner leaves first early. I called dead ball and signaled an out. A coach (one of five standing by the dugout) runs up to me, while yelling at the runner to stay on second (made it al the way there in short order) and says "she is not out", in which I replied "coach she left early, she is out". The coach then said the infamous phrase of “that is the worst call ever”. I then replied, "Coach let it go, she is out". The coach couldn’t let it go and eventually talked me into tossing him after I asked him several times to let it go. So, am I the leader this week or did someone out do me?

The last Ronald McDonald tournament I did, i called 2 runners out for leaving early. My partner, in an Ronald McDonald tournament called one runner out for leaving early. They were all "the worst call ever."
Good luck today. |

Last Thursday, we had a JV game with a wonderfully executed 'hook and ladder' play, where the receiver hooks in, catches the ball and then laterials to a waiting team mate. Unfortunately, another player chose to block someone in the back and I threw a flag for, you guessed it, the worst call ever. Now, do I get a separate award for football or do we have to share between sports.
