Had the DD's HS coach say something to the DD one time that she thought I was calling pitches. I was pissed when she told me that. The next time I saw the coach I took her to the side and let her know in no uncertain terms that I have NEVER called a pitch from outside the fence in my life. My DD played for the same travel program the HS coach did when she was younger and I reminded the coach of that. She knows that type of non-sense is not allowed there. I think I kind of surprised the coach by heading off the BS at the very start. The coach never said another thing after that.
After I thought back on it, the incident happened after a game when the regular starting catcher was not behind the plate. The catcher had 5 passed balls, 4 dropped 3rd's and the DD was shaking her off all game long. She couldn't handle the movement and the speed. My guess is she tried to cover her own poor performance with an excuse. Needless to say the coach never let her catch for my DD during a game again.
