Hey guys, I am just looking for some other softball players opinions on this.
I had a championship game in a Sunday rec league and a guy on the other team pissed me off and I want to know if I'm wrong in thinking it was a bush league move.
Series is best of 3, first game bottom of the 6th he gets up with one on and no outs. He digs into the back of the box and takes a first pitch strike (start 1 and 1.) Next pitch he leans his body back in the box and swings straight down and hits the catchers glove on purpose resulting in a catchers interferance and jogs to first. Our C wasn't really crowding the plate in his crouch, so I got a little pissed.
I know the rules of the game but I would never do something like that, if you don't show up to swing my thought is why bother going? So is this garbage or do more people do this stuff and I am just over-thinking it?
