" The coach got so mad at me he went to the tourney director and asked that i be removed from the tournament. I didnt make the call but because i agreed with the base umpires call he got upset."
While I suppose it doesn't specifically state PU and coach had a conversation... this part sure does make it seem like they did. If they didn't, wouldn't coach's ire (and discussion with TD) be directed at BU? How would he know PU agreed and didn't simply have no opinion?

Dixie has us confer to make sure rules are applied correctly due to that is the only protests the coaches get are due to mis-application of the rules.

Thanks guys for all the information. This site has helped me become a better umpire and I use what i learn here and the extra studying this site makes me do to help train other "rec umpires" so leagues get better service.

Question: Did you check the rules book right after the game or later that day or at all? If you did, why the question? |
