This player was almost ejected from a game for a dugout outburst,throwing gear,water cooler ect.He made the last out and threw a helmet and bat in the same game.He wrote a letter of apology and we discussed his behavior,feeling he was sincere i did not bench him.He had had words with umps more than once during the season.During the this game(the first post) he was putting down his own players vebally from the mound for making "e's" behind him.The meatball comment was not yelled to him just stated from the foul line.I agree now probably not smart of me.This is my first year coaching HS and its a lesson learned.Earlier in the inning i had gone to the hill to say he was doing a fine job and he could do nothing about the errors.
