Umpire Etiquette
(Or, How to get yourself thrown out of a game)
Judgment calls such as fair or foul, ball or strike, or out or safe aren't up for discussion. If you want clarification on a ruling, it's appropriate to come out and discuss it. But coming up and telling the umpire that he's wrong and the ball was really fair isn't going to accomplish anything.
