Don't you just love......
Coaches that blame you for their own mistakes? Home coach subs 8 for 2. I verify with him, "8 for 2, correct?" He confirms, 8 for 2. Watches me circle 8 on the subs and write it next to 2 on the lineup. I loudly announce sub to visitors scorekeeper twice. 2 innings later visiting coach comes out to appeal an unreported sub, 2 had just batted and is on base. I rule on play, here comes home coach. "I subbed 8 for 10, not 2". I explain he had verified and watched me write down the sub. As he is walking away he says, "2 sounds like 10, I see how you could make that mistake."
