In the 67’ player #9 for PG Jorge Valdizan was cautioned for dissent after being warned verbally once before during the contest. As he was shown the caution he immediately continued his dissent saying “you’re horrible”, “you suck” as he gestures and clapping up high and in a mocking and derogatory nature. He was then shown his second caution for dissent and ejected from the contest.
After the contest had completed in a 3-1 victory for PG. This same player Jorge Valdizan who was previously ejected came over to midfield from his bench area and began to harass and say how bad I was as a referee. He came to our space to give his opinion. I would ask that UHSAA deal with this behavior after the completion of the game and only minutes after. He had already been ejected but still made it a point to seek me out, come to our space and referee zone and speak his discontent for the referee.
On a positive, the Lone peak varsity head coach made it a point even though they had lost the game, stated and said that he wanted me to know that I was the best referee they had had all year. |

2 outs force play at 3rd, I called from about 15 maybe 20 feet away at or near where the Short-Stop made a nice play fielding the ball and tossing from her knees to 3rd for the force. I wasn't closer because I was unsure where the SS might take her throw. I called the runner out. It being the 3rd out of the inning.
I then moved to the pitching circle to dust the plate, it was then when I realized the the Asst Coach Gillman was in a B-line to me say she was safe in quite a load voice, it then I stopped and repeated in my judgement she was out. He continued to insist she was safe. I told he it was over, he heads for the dug-out yelling it was a horrible call. My partner Dan Roach kind of helps him into the dugout. I get to my normal position beyond 1st base, he comes out of the dugout and gestures to me "Safe-Call". With this I restrict him to the dugout. He gets in the dug-out and continues to voice she was safe. After about 10 seconds of him "carrying on" and walk toward the dug-out with the intention of ejecting him, I think differently, walk back to my position. He continues to carry-on infecting the girls in the dugout with his unsporting behavior. After what seemed like another 10 seconds I eventually feel enough is enough and eject him.
He seemed happy with that or just made sarcastic remarks to that effect.
Plate: Dan Roach
Bases: Jess Cornwell

I was behind the plate, 1st game of the Saturday double-header. #27 for PG was on base in the top of the 3rd inning. After a base hit, he was rounding 3rd base, heading home at full speed. The throw came in, the Herriman catcher caught it and slid over to block the plate. #27 lowered his shoulder and plowed the catcher over. He ran into the catcher shoulder first. I ejected him for malicious contact.
#27 for PG did not play in the second game of the DH. |

Top of the 3rd inning, zero out, with runners on 2nd and 3rd. Ground ball in the infield, runner from third, #10 Morgan Wood from American Fork, breaks for home. Play at the plate with a hard, legal slide, #10 was called out on the play. With both players on the ground #11 Jaxon Brown from Pleasant Grove, pushes #10 from American Fork in the chest and says "You fucking bitch." #10 from American Fork then gets up and pushes #11 from Pleasant Grove back. Both players were then ejected. |

Bottom of the 6th- Pleasant Grove is pitching, Bingham is at bat. 1 out. Runners on first and second. A pitch had previously been delivered on the inside, and was balled. The fans were irate, and this caused the pitcher to react in a manner that expressed his disagreement with the call. The very next pitch was in the exact same spot and it was balled for ball four, loading the bases. The pitcher, #3 Conner Johnsen, immediately looked at me behind home plate and yelled, “Fuck That!” He was immediately ejected on the grounds of profanity towards an umpire. It was also loud enough that fans behind were within earshot of the words.
Per Rule 3-3-f-2 pen. f. commit any unsportsmanlike act to include, but not limited to, 1. use of words or actions to incite or attempt to incite spectators demonstrations, 2. use of profanity, intimidation tactics, remarks reflecting unfavorably upon any other person, or taunting or baiting. The NFHS disapproves of any form of taunting that is intended or designed to embarrass, ridicule or demean others under circumstances including race, religion, gender or national origin. 3. use of any language intended to intimidate, 4. behavior in any manner not in accordance with the spirit of fair play; 5. being in live ball territory (excluding team’s bullpen area) during the opponent’s infield practice prior to the start of the game. 6. any member of the coaching staff who was not the head coach (or designee) in 3-2-4 leaving the vicinity of the dugout or coaching box to dispute a judgment call by an umpire. 7. Confronting or directing unsportsmanlike conduct to the umpires after the game has concluded and until the umpires have departed the game site. g. enter the area behind the catcher while the opposing pitcher and catcher are in their positions; h. use of any object in his possession in the coach’s box other than a stopwatch, rule book (hard copy), scorebook; i. be outside the designated dugout (bench) or bullpen area if not a batter, runner, on-deck batter, in the coach’s box or one of the nine players on defense; j. charge an umpire; k. use amplifiers or bullhorns for coaching purposes during the course of the game; PENALTY: The umpire shall warn the offender unless the offense is judged to be major, in which case an ejection shall occur.r
Based on my judgement, the act was considered Major and resulted in immediate ejection. I spoke with my partner Craig Gaines after the game if he would of handled that situation differently and he agreed that it was loud enough and directed at an official.
I would like to note that immediately following, Coach Henry expressed his distaste with the call, he did not express any actions that would warrant his ejection, and he also had already received a balls and strikes warning previous in the inning for arguing balls and strikes.
Following the contest- the Assistant Principal for Pleasant Grove followed us to our car and asked what the kid had said to be ejected, I informed him accordingly. He then continued following us to our cars taking the opportunity to inform me that “he has been watching baseball for a long time, and those were indeed strikes from where he was sitting, and that I was incorrect in my call.” I normally do not expect that type of behavior from the administration, but I would like to note this behavior in this report.
