Game ended after 8:12 had elapsed in overtime following a successful goal by Carbon on a penalty kick, brought about by a foul committed by PH goal keeper.
As game wrapped and celebrating by carbon started, the Providence Hall goal keeper (Dante Montgomery - #1) was seen physically damaging the goal net in his frustration, Referee Eddy Roberts approached to retrieve game ball and calm player and direct him to join his team. Player Montgomery then kicked game ball into the parking lot, and then walked to the opposite side of his goal area where he performed an obscene gesture (flipped the bird) to the Carbon supporters.
At this point, I felt the his emotions had gone too far and I showed him a red card.
To my count, there are several possible red car offenses here.
1. Violent conduct towards the goal apparatus
2. Using insulting,offensive or abusive languages or gestures.
3. Multiple yellow card offenses.
If you have questions, I’d be more than happy to talk it over.

Before the game, I was running late, caught in construction traffic, so I called Greg Arata, my partner, who was at the field, and he was able to gear up and take the plate for the first varsity game. The field at West Ridge Academy (Providence Hall's home field) does not have foul lines in grass beyond the infield to the fence. In pregame, Greg and I discussed this, and agreed that Greg would be better suited to line up fair-foul calls with the infield foul line.
At the beginning of the bottom of the 7th inning, one of the assistant coaches for PH, Darrel Hernandez, was yelling at Greg about inconsistent strike zone. Since he was standing close to me (I was in A position, he was at the back of the first base dugout), I told him to knock it off. At the end of that half-inning, I told the PH head coach to put a muzzle on his assistant coach, that if they had any issues with us we would only talk to the head coach, that the assistant coach had no business complaining to the umps.
The game went into extra innings, and the first batter for Juab in the top of the 8th hit a deep fly ball down the right field line. Per our pre-game discussion, I came in and tracked the runner. I thought I heard someone say something that sounded like "foul," but I wasn't certain who said it, or what was even said. As the runner rounded first, I glanced over my shoulder at Greg, who was pointing fair. I tracked the runner to 3rd, where he was safe without a throw.
I turned and looked at the plate, because I heard a big commotion there. That same assistant coach was at home plate, in Greg's face, yelling at him, extremely irate, about calling the ball foul, then signaling fair. The head coach was slowly walking towards the plate, not saying anything. I came in to the plate area, and told the assistant coach, "Coach, you're the assistant, you have no business being out here. You need to back away and let your head coach deal with this." He replied, "I don't care, that was a crappy call.." and continued to berate Greg. I said, "This is your written warning. If you say anything else, you're in the dugout." Again, he said, "I don't care, I'm not gonna shut up." and continued with his tirade. I said, "coach, you're in the dugout. Another word and you're ejected!" He replied, "eject me then, because I'm not gonna shut up." So I ejected him. Then he said, "Good. Now I can really say what I think." And he continued to rip into Greg. I then turned to the head coach, who was just standing there, and told him to get his assistant under control. He finally ushered his assistant coach away, and the game continued. |
