I definitely get your point, but I will miss that first game under the lights! Our HS has one first rate facility and the feeling of electricity in the air under the lights against one of our big rivals is hard to beat!
Not my daughter so I did not get upset but definitely a "great googily moogily" moment. HS Sectional game. Top of the 7th. visitors down by 1. 2 outs. Pinch runner inserted at 1st. Pop-up to no mans land, and the runner freezes 10 feet from 1st base. The ball drops and she sashay's into 2nd base. Of course she should have been standing on 3rd. The next pitch goes to the back stop and now she takes 3rd. The batter makes the out to end the game with the runner on 3rd.

What drives me nuts is my dd's total lack of understanding (or caring) that her success on the field is a direct reflection of my parenting skills and ability to brag on Facebook. Kids just don't get it, you would think she cared about me more after all I do for her.

"If your kid were a great hitter, I wouldn't ask her to bunt."
A delayed dead ball is listed inteh rules as the result of a
No a coach that hugs a player on the field needs to evaluate why they are there. Boundaries between a coach and player are very important, this was a female coach, but it is even more important for a male, especially when it's not your daughter. Even an accusation from a third party can mess up your life. Games are time for the coach to be professional not touchy. There is a time and a place for everything, even if the ump didn't make the call this was not appropriate.

So that would be a No to the question regarding whether hugging is assisting the runner. Thanks.
I was talking strictly rules of the game and not rules of conduct..if you have issues with your coach being too "handsy" with your kid take it up with her...
