Glad to hear advice. First year umpire. Have done about 30 games so far this season. Almost all 10-12u Little League. Almost all by myself. Did a game 2 days ago 12u LL. Coaches told me it was a “competitive” league. So, I called a normal strike zone. Team A’s coach (I later learned was the father of the pitcher) would not stop yelling “WHERE IS THAT?!” “CMON BLUE!!” Etc. I gave him a look, but did not say anything. Midway through the game, Team A on offense. Kid hits a dribbler to F4. From my angle, throw gets to 1B millisecond before runner. I call runner out. 1B coach loses it and yells “Are you kidding me?! Safe by a mile and everyone in here knows that!!” Game tied bottom of 6th. Team A up bottom of inning. Kid hits a ball hard down the 3B line. Hits the line and before it gets to the bag, goes foul. I call foul and coaches again start screaming at me. Team A comes back to win the game. I’m walking to the car and one of the players yell, loud enough for everyone to hear “Thanks for nothing, Stevie Wonder!!” I am assuming he was NOT complimenting me on my piano playing abilities, either. Well, because little league in this part of town is pretty small, guess who I am scheduled to umpire for this coming Friday? Team A. Do I say anything about this previous game? Would that be unprofessional and petty? I know I need to be professional and objective, and I will be no matter what. But also, we are teaching kids how to act and how to compete. I think we should hold coaches, players and umpires (myself included) to a high standard. TIA for your thoughts and opinions.
