Roy,

I agree with you about when to leave. We'll leave as the pitcher is bringing his hands together. If the 2B breaks to the grass, we tell our runner it turns into a steal and stop(don't run into the tag).

As for it being bush, those are the guys that must have gotten beat by it once and are bitter. The last time I checked I coach HS baseball. If my line up read...

Damon
Jeter
Abreu
A. Rodriguez
Matsui
Posada
Cano
I. Rodriguez
~~Cabrera~~Cameron
...then I probably would not have to "resort to those types of bush league tactics." I'd also like win the lottery, but that probably won't happen either. SO...I'll continue to go to work, teach my classes, coach what I have, and do the things that give my kids the best chance to win.

If we are winning, you can call me whatever you want.
