Batter crowding the plate is easy enough to see around with a slight shift, but a catcher bouncing around is a major problem. I had one the other night that was shifting so far inside after the pitcher started her motion that she was stepping on my foot and getting her head further inside than mine.

Umpire: I saw the #17 on the back of your third baseman. Last I had a visual on the ball, it was over fair territory, that makes it a fair ball.


Coach: Well Blue, get yourself a better angle and perhaps you won't miss that call in the future

Yeah, that does sound like one of the DUMB things a coach would say.
