Umpire sucks for allowing it and the strike zone doesn't change if you duck. That was a fkn strike

An unsportsmanlike conduct call from the ump would have been in order here. Is that what coaches teach these days?

Seems to me that he didn’t pull his back back so should’ve been a strike, but please don’t be this Coach or Parent

That’s a strike didn’t pull back , I’m sorry I would hit him next time he was up

I’m calling it a strike for one of two reasons. 1. To much bat movement as pitch is being delivered and in my opinion he offered at it or 2. When you try to duck out of my strike zone or jump out the box that’s a strike on you.

Coaches should not allow this behaviour as it"s outside the sportsmanship unwritten rules. My kid wouldn't be allowed to do it.
