Bulldog 19, same here, I am guilty of that as well. Although I have said some pretty bad stuff to my pitchers, one of my pitchers likes to tell the story- the most demeaning thing I ever said to him. Basically, he was trying to be too picky on the corners, with an ump who has a very tight strike zone. So he's walking the ballpark and its turning out to be a pretty ugly inning. There were two outs when I went out to the mound, and I said very angrily and slowly, "Just throw the ball over the plate." Two pitches later, we were out of the inning. But he says that was the most demeaning thing every said to him on the mound. At least we laugh about it now.
