Two years ago at PONY Nationals, in an elimination game, one of my players hit a line shot back at the pitcher that hit her square in the chest. I thought she was going to be severely injured so I stopped my base runners immediately. Luckily she was wearing an EvoShield and was not hurt. After the game, the pitcher's parents came up to me to thank me for stopping the play and not continuing to run. I thought about it afterwards, and thought that there surely can't be coaches out there that would have continued to run until the ball was under control or Blue called time.

Well, yeah, that's why it is called a competition and they keep score. As a previous poster noted, these things are part of the game.
