Well, it DOES seem strange that a fight would randomly break out after the game while they were shaking hands. It seems likely that one of the girls said something to set them off.

That being said, it doesn't justify violence. More of us need to learn how to walk away when someone drops the N-bomb.


I agree, some things were probably said. But the coaches said it was going on during the game, why not get with the umpire, stop the game and either stop the shite talking there, or simply get your team and walk off. Address the issue before it becomes what it became.

I say this as someone who has umpired youth baseball/softball for 10+ years. Sadly many of the coaches don't care about trash talk and/or sportsmanship. Their main goal in winning first and foremost.

Also sadly, many of these coaches don't actually coach fundamentals well at all and only win because they are loaded with talented kids. Ends up hurting the kids as they get older as they don't get the proper basics down during their developmental years.
