Katee, Keep reading, and posting. I would hope you always want to improve yourself, and your team. The problems players pose help me at least to keep a perspective from a players point of view. As you may realize, softball rules can at times be subject to "Umpires Judgement". If you read this board enough, you will see that term frequently. Umpires do err at times, (and also like to argue with each other A LOT, you didn't cause that!). Sometimes if we ask, and dont get the answer we want, we will try and argue our point, that is fine in this forum, cause it really makes us all think very hard about our calls, and interpretations of the rules. I have coached many years, and now umpire. One point I would like you to consider is one I would make to my girls, that is (as in your original post) A bad call did not cause you to lose. Your team had the whole game to outscore the other team, so the loss doesnt go to the umpire, and why did ya'll let that runner get to third anyway? If after that tight of a game, two extra innings, hold your head up, you didn't get beat, just outscored! Keep the posts coming.
