10U Fall Ball. First season in Kid Pitch for most players and coaches. 1st round of post-season tournament. I am BU.
It was a great night for coach explanations (all with the same coach).... With it being Fall Ball and I am on the BOD for the league, we give the coaches ALOT of leeway since this is all new to alot of them.
#1:
Coach: "If a batter tries to bunt and misses, are you going to call that a strike?"
Me: "Yes" 
Coach: "Ok"
#2:
Coach: "The runner on 3rd just stole on a walk"
Me: "Yeah"
Coach: "You can't do that"
Me: "Yes you can"
Coach: "You can't steal on a walk. It's a dead ball"
Me: "No, a walk is still live"
Coach: "No it isn't" (Behind the fence behind him, is a parent shaking his head agreeing with the coach.)
Me: "This is real baseball coach. Trust me" (I turn and walk away) 
#3:
Coach: "Blue, did the ball hit the runner on that play at first last inning?" (Bunt, catchers throw went wide and into right field and the batter went all the way around and scored"
Me: "No. Besides, this isn't the time to ask about it. You need to bring it up at the time, not between innings"
Coach: "It looked like it hit him"
Me: "No it didn't, I was right there."
Coach: "Well my first baseman said it did"
Me: "Well, he's 9 and I was watching it. We're done" 
He walked away.
Like I said at the beginning, our league wants to give the coaches ALOT of leeway with it being Fall. In the Spring, I would have shut him down immediately.
Just one of those funny nights!
