My daughter plays first base on her middle school team. She gets a little grounder hit down the line, charges it, picks it up, and tags the girl out coming down the line. The runner punches my daughter in the throat. The umpires ejected the girl and apparently the school will be fined $300 (which they will probably make the family reimburse) and the girl will get a one game suspension.
While I was in the dugout making sure my daughter was OK (she was. The wind was knocked out of her and scared her but she's OK otherwise), the other coach approached the bench to apologize for the girl's actions. I asked the coach for the girl's name and she ignored me. I asked her again and she turned her back and started kicking at the dirt in the thrid base coaches box.
My wife is mad beyond belief. She wants the girl suspended for the rest of the season (which means the end of season tournament rather than just a single game) and wants the coach sanctioned for her behavior when I asked for the girl's name.
Any thoughts?
