But yes, electronics???

True. And it being fall rec ball, I wasn't going to go rule nazi on him. I had no problem overlooking the headphones and his other idiosyncrasies.

But you bring up an interesting question. I'm fairly sure this guy's electronics were simply to listen to some podcast on how to paint a doghouse. I seriously doubt they were to convey coaching instructions. Are ALL electronics except for those to keep score disallowed on the field?
