WSSA Board Members and Umpires Meet
The Commissioner, Deputy Commissioner, and two Division Presidents met with this season's umpiring crew to discuss league/umpire relations. We are lucky to have five umpires returning and want to keep them returning for years to come. To that end, the league offered these guidelines for player behavior toward umpires:
- Only the team manager is authorized to discuss a call made by the umpire.
- The manager may discuss whether the umpire's interpretation of a rule is correct. Arguing over a judgment call is not allowed.
- Any player accosting an umpire over a call or showing disrespect to an umpire may be ejected by the umpire.
- An ejected player must promptly leave the field and have no further interaction with the umpire. Failure to do so will result in a forfeit by his team.
- An ejected player may not play again until the next scheduled play date. If the ejection occurs in the first game of the double header, the player also may not play in the second game.
