In this case it's because these are rec players who are still learning that they need to assume everything is fair until the ump says it isn't (even though I have told them this a thousand times in every possible way ). And no, I did not say anything to the ump about it or blame him. I did have yet another discussion about it with the players, however.
My yelling "It's fair! Get the ball!" didn't seem to help much
So if the coach yelling "It's fair!" doesn't work for them ... I don't think me pointing is going to change too much.
