    I am on base after hitting a double. The next batter hits a solid single to center. The throw to the plate arrives as I slide in. The umpire emphatically calls me out as I lay on the ground. Our fans are vocally irate. As I slowly get up from the collision, I hear the catcher (who has been having pitch-call problems all game) sarcastically and critically say to the umpire: " Blue, you really botched that one; I dropped the ball as I tagged him". The catcher said it so all in the dugouts and in the stands heard what he said. That really upset Blue.
    If you are Blue, what, if anything, do you do?

    That was a stupid move by the catcher. Never show up an umpire! If I was the umpire, I'd toss him. I've seen players thrown out for less.

    Perfect time to teach the young man a life lesson...and umpires know how to do that. Obviously, the kid hasn't learned to play the game "inside" a game.:Reagan-hittin-head-
