Softball personal pet peeves/ semantics

"ILLEGAL PITCH!!!"

There is such a thing as an "illegal pitch", but it's not defined as "a pitch my your kid is having trouble hitting."

The teams that blare their stereos. Was at Beaver Falls tournament in Pittsburgh and a team was warming up out by left field. The music was so loud, it was plainly a distraction in our game. Can't believe "Blue" didn't put a stop to it. This same team also was playing music during their game. Pumping the volume after a successful play and in between innings. Was ready to take that Boom Box and stick it you know where! By the way, this team won the tourney...

I have the most wonderful wife in the world....... But...... For the more than 40 years we have been married, most of which were spent at baseball or softball games, she will still turn to me, look at me with those beautiful blue eyes and ask......... "Honey.......what ending is it ?" For 42 years I have tried to correct this phrase, hasn't worked yet.

Curling has ends.......

My biggest pet peeve is the dreaded CALLED THIRD STRIKE!!!!!!!!!! Drives me nuts.

What's this "pitching rubber" thing everybody's talking about?

Oh, okay...you mean the pitcher's plate!

When you have your kid leave real early and the umpire calls her out and the other team's parents and/or coaches scream:

"IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU CALL IT!!!"
