The umpire, Sam Phelps, plans on pressing charges against the unnamed youth coach, according to Fox 4 News. Judging from the severity of the situation, pursuing charges seems very reasonable.

Allow me to make this as simple as possible for everyone reading this. If you get physical with an ump or official during a sporting event, you’re an absolute clown.
It’s not hard to understand at all. You’re a grade-A loser if you ever do something like this.

If you’re an adult man and are getting physical for any reason other than you’re in a life or death situation, you’re an absolute loser and society should shame the hell out of you.
I can’t imagine ever getting in a fight with a sports official because I didn’t like a call. Sure, I might yell and make a scene, but when it comes to putting my hands on them, no chance in hell I’d ever do that.

This coach 100% deserves whatever is coming his way. If you’re going to be a moron, you deserve to be punished.
