All of these were at the same tourmament and one team was involved in all 3:
Situation 1:
Bases loaded and 1 out. Line drive to the third baseman is caught, she has to make a lunging tag to get the runner on third before she gets back to complete the double play. The runner takes offence by the tag. After she gets up off the ground she starts to head to the opposing teams huddle out side their dugout as they get ready to hit. Coaches have to restrain her.
if you were the umpire what would you do?
Situation 2: Same team different game.
They are down 5-0. There is a pop up. The pitcher,catcher and first baseman are husttling to make the play in foul territoty. The on deck batter gets out of the way. the ball is missed played on the fence. The coach yells to the on deck batter the next time that happens do not move from that on deck circle. A fan yells out that is not fair. The coach replies " I'm not here to be fair I'm here to win."
If you are the umpire what would you call?
Situation 3: Same team same game.
The team is now down late in the game 5-2. Batter hits a ground ball to the shortstop. It is fielded and thrown to first for the out. As the batter crosses the bag she throws an elbow at the first baseman.
The umpire gave a warning.
If you are the umpire what would you call?
I do not know if I have ever witnessed a display of unsportmanlike conduct from one team.
I am an umpire and know what i would have done on all three situations. Just would like to here your opinions.
