[4RE KLR]

Mike,
We had the EXACT same thing happen when my son was playing. The other coach was jumping up and down and yelling and acting like a three year old.

I was the assistant coach on the team. Our Head Coach was talking to the Ump and come over to tell me we were going to be DQ'd. Mind you this was at the top of the last inning.

I suggested to our head coach the entire game had been played that way, why did the other coach just now raise the issue. He did because it was obvious they would loose the game.

The opposing coach kept telling the Ump, very loudly that he had seen and had been watching this for the whole game. So he knew he was right.

The end result. The Ump, threw out the request for DQ, since the opposing coach noticed the issue at the first inning but waited until he knew they would loose the game to raise the issue. Therefore, he had forfeited his right and accepted precedence.

The game went on and our boys won the game 12-1.

The opposing coach disputed the game, and lost to the board as well. He was not allowed to coach the following year because of verbal abuse to the boys on his own team. When they were selecting the coaches none of the parents would let their boys play on his team.
