As an umpire and a parent, I do not interfere with another umpire's games when I am a spectator. However, last night I couldn't just sit there. After my son's baseball game, our league's junior softball team was playing and since my daughter has friends on the team, we decided to stay and watch for a while (LL Junior League Softball). The umpires were not allowing the batters to run on 3rd strike not caught with two outs and a runner on first. In fact, when they ran, they were stopping them and preventing further play. After the first time, I said something to our scorekeeper, who relayed the information to the umpires. The second time, it was brought up again by our coach, and I hear them tell her loudly, "well, he's wrong!". The second time would have advanced our runners and put the BR on 1st. After it happened a third time, when, again, we would have advanced runners and put the BR on 1st, I couldn't take it. Since we were at another league's field, I went over to an umpire from my association and borrowed his rulebook. Found the rule and sat quietly in my seat. When the PU walked over by where I was sitting between innings, I walked up and showed him the rule. He was greatly surprised, but didn't seem upset. However, this play didn't occur again the remainder of our time there; we had to leave for other commitments and couldn't stay for the entire game. I don't know if this happened again.
