| June 10, 2010 HB | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Where in the SSUSA Rule Book is this one?? Hi Guys, remember me??!! LOL! Stick, to answer your question: You're right on about the coaxing from the other team to change the call. Has nothing to do with rules, judgement call, etc., it has EVERYTHING to do with an ump simply being intimidated by the other team to change the call. Sad, but VERY true! |
| June 4, 2010 HB | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Where in the SSUSA Rule Book is this one?? Softballer, What was said to the ump was only asking for an explanation. Ump definitely replied with an attitude. As always, there will be an ump that forgets that we "pay to play, not get paid to play"! Dirty, good point! Reminds me of a Reno airport screener's reply when I commented to a security issue with my wife about using common sense: "Sir, we don't use common sense anymore"! How do you reply to that! |
| June 3, 2010 HB | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Where in the SSUSA Rule Book is this one?? BTW Taits, Just looked at "your" interpretation of my complaint and the SSUSA rule it pertains to. Hello??!! My suggestion to you: Read it (complaint) before you reply to it. 16.3 COMPLAINT PROCEDURE (SSWC TOURNAMENT ONLY) Complaints may be verbally expressed to the Tournament Director or to SSWC Board Members. However, all complaints to be considered by the Tournament Protest Committee shall be in writing with careful attention to all pertinent facts and details. The Tournament Protest Committee may request independent reports from others involved in the complaint in the interest of a complete and fair review of matters at issue. NOTE: A complaint is not to be confused with a Protest. |
| June 3, 2010 HB | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Where in the SSUSA Rule Book is this one?? Dirty, Good points, but just as you don't think you need a rule book for this, how about just using common "softball" sense, and change it "before" the defensive team is leaving the field! |
| June 3, 2010 HB | Topic: Rules of the game Discussion: Where in the SSUSA Rule Book is this one?? In Reno had an umpire change his call from out to safe on a play at home plate on the 3rd out The play was finished and teams were already leaving the field. When manager asked why he thought he could change his call and asked for help from first base ump, HP ump refused that request and instead threw him out of the game for protesting the reversal. Show me the SSUSA Rule that gives this umpire this kind of authority. (especially with no instant replay!) |
