Ok, so the game keeps going even though someone who is not in play enters the field to grab the bat. Wtf

Oh nnnnnnnnnooooo you don’t put the runner on 3rd back to 2nd!!!!!

The majority, if not all baseball fields do not have the running lane unless you’re on a high school field. It typically gives a coach, a half argument are you only the points that benefit his team or not understanding under certain circumstances that’s not what happens. You certainly don’t have to be smart to be a coach just be willing to do it

I learned years ago that if you teach a young kid the proper way to play any game they can do it. Age is not really the problem. It is the coach does not believe in the player.

Its really hard when ur pitcher always tell u to not to throw and everybody on the field is listening to him instead of the catcher that trying so hard to give a signal to backpick

Don't have the angle blue had to see if he tagged up or not..but assuming the runner broke too quick he is out..Good call.

Foul ball..dead ball.. no outs..strike if less than two. The batter was in the box and did not intentionally interfer.

I use a 24 inch strike zone for Little league. I like when games go quick. No one complains about my zone because it’s consistent for both teams

I'm just starting to officiate baseball and this video process was very helpful. Looking froward to others like it.

When we played the ump always called the catcher *my* catcher. The catcher is the guy who stops all the balls from hitting the ump

I'm going to be 45 and I can still smell the glove. It was great growing up just playing ball and chasing tail.....all you boys have fun! You only grow up once so enjoy the ride

I say foul tip

“For we were not making up clever stories when we told you about the powerful coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. We saw his majestic splendor with our own eyes when he received honor and glory from God the Father. The voice from the majestic glory of God said to him, “This is my dearly loved Son, who brings me great joy.” We ourselves heard that voice from heaven when we were with him on the holy mountain.” ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭16‬-‭18‬ ‭NLT‬

Strike 4. Ball don't lie.

I can watch balk calls a lot yet never ever see why the call is needed. Its ridiculous. Even the batter dosent notice. Very stupid rule and worse to call it. Its not needed.

Coach: " I'm very sorry kids. My stupid mistake cost us the game. I knew I shdv just stayed at my Home Depot night manager job and never tht of coaching. Id' like to tender my resignation effective immediately so you can find someone more competent. And I'll take you all out for ice cream anyway"

Not the catchers fault obviously the lights were in his eyes but he has a great arm

These ignorant parents is why kids are so screwed up, ump should have tossed you out, next dis1ualify the team, if your boy can't play get a dress let him play softball

Your a punk

Coaches used to give signs to mlb players back in the earliest days. It didn't work. I do realize the coaches know better than the youth players, but making the catchers rely on coaches won't develop them, it will make them a momma's boy.

Interference by the runner, Interference is done by offense except by the catcher. Little League rule 7.08 (a)(3) Any runner is out when the runner dosent slide or attempt to get around a fielder who has the ball and is waiting to make a tag

Go New York New Jersey Sucks

Another example of the announcers not fully understanding the rule. They seem surprised that the protection a fielder gets for fielding a batted ball, was not extended to the shortstop. The second baseman is clearly closer to, and in the act of, fielding the ball. The shortstop as a secondary fielder approaching the play, is not in the act of fielding the ball and can not be given the protection against runner interference. Therefore, he is a fielder without possession of the ball, and not fielding a batted ball, who is impeding the progress of the runner.

In a situation with a tight strikezone. Have your pitchers come inside a lot. If you want to just walk… you may earn it.

Lol sounds like Shoresy chirping.

I’m a high school & little league umpire. In the scenario with obstruction to third. Yes R2 should’ve been safe at third. The defense has the right of way when fielding a ball, but in this case the SS obstructed R2 but only 2B has the right of way. The few steps R2 lost could’ve cost a different path the back needed to be thrown. In this case, there was no runner and the lane was wide open.

I caught a kid in little league days early 80s he threw in the 80s i hated catching for him my left thumb was broken half way through a game thought i was good til next morning ended up with pins in my thumb and a cast for rest of summer

Guy narrating is the loser in this video. The guy was consistent. "I don't believe in bashing umpires" as you bash him irl. Delusional.

1st play---I don't have CI, because he let the ball cross the plate and the batter didn't swing. I see the argument for it, but both feet were in the box at T.o.P. and ball was received behind the plate. 2nd play--I have him out at home and the batter still batting because the batter cleared this time (didn't in 1st play but still didn't interfere). 3rd play---If it was lopsided, I'm not arguing, but as an ump the integrity of the game should have him safe. LLWS play---just normal LLWS umpiring. They are the worst and need to get good, paid umpires.

The announcer has everything confused. On the replay he was referring to possible "obstruction by the runner" (which doesn't exist. It would be interference by the runner), and then he says the umps called "interference" and that the runner from third *scores* and the offense is really happy. So really, the ump called "obstruction" of the runner, by the shortstop.

That manager who cried to the media is a disgrace.

I really think it ridiculous that a coach calls the pitch to little leaguers. At that age they shouldn’t be throwing curves,change ups,etc. They should be leaning the proper mechanics.

I remember this. I thought it was the wrong call. Time out should have been called. It was clearly requested.

Ball

I’m constantly screaming at LL umpires on TV for the ridiculously wide strike zone. If that’s what these parents are used to, no wonder they’re mad. They think 8 inches off the plate is getting punched out every time. Props to this ump. You never have to guess where the zone is.

Out. The second baseman was trying to field the ball

A-holes like this us why I quit umping.

Definitely a red flag that you caused the situation at this game. However, much more disturbing that you thought it right to then create this video "explaining" your "strategy". Just stay home next time!

Balk! He hesitated!

Not “Mickey Mouse” at all........Simply knowing the rules and using them to your advantage.

Good video👍

Well done👍

Wow, umpire makes the *correct* call and then is overruled? Dang.

The second example is funny because the catcher tagged the batter/runner, as he should have, but with an empty glove while holding the ball in his other hand. Ump signaled out anyway.

On strike 3, if the ball hits the dirt first but the catcher catches it cleanly, can the batter run or no?

CORRECT call no matter what the situation is. Blame the coach NOT the Umpire making the correct call.

Lame
