  1. Coaching is a year to year hire, no contracts, this is a fact. I have heard the name Mike Smith, never a head coach but a employee for Perry County.
  2. The score was 6-1 going into the bottom of 7.
  3. This is a problem I see way too often, schools/programs relying on someone in the system. Whether it is in sports or an administrative position. Sometimes, you have to go out and hire the best fit. Get away from the back alley politics of schools. I am not saying this guy is not the best for the job but look at other coaches and see what they can brinig to your program.
  4. I guess you failed to read my last post correcting my error...... Sorry, unlike a lot, I will admit my error. I cited the rule for everyone to view..... enjoy
  5. There is where it becomes a problem most of the time. In some areas, an umpire gets paid 55.00 a varsity game, 45 for jv. The best paying area, central ky, they get 65 per game, any level. I don't understand why some umps get paid differently when they have the same job to do. I guess next season, a lot of game will be cancelled due to NO umpires. Umpires are getting out of baseball, not much money, too long, and just as all sports, no respect.
  6. OK, I quit being lazy and looked it up, I stand corrected, it is a no pitch. Rule 6-2-4-d.1
  7. It is a balk but now I did go back and read if indeed another umpire called time, it is not a balk. My question, who asked this ump to call time?
  8. I judge this, if I feel that the batter had opportunity to move, very slow breaking pitch that is near the box, he stays if it hits him. Anything fast, he gets first without making the attempt to move. It does come down to judgement but the batter must make an attempt to move and I don't care, if he bends over to get the hit, it is a strike! Take one for the team my butt. I hate to hear that yelled from specs......
  9. Balk! If the plate umpire did not grant time, the pitcher should have delivered the pitch. If he had thrown the pitch, it would have been a strike, I don't care what location it was at.
