Other Sports Worst you've ever been chewed out by a coach.

I guess really the only story I have was my senior year playing baseball. We had a coach that was a pitcher in high school and decided he was going to throw live BP to us one day. He was so confident that nobody could hit him that he wasn't going to use a net or anything.

Granted this was my first year playing baseball, and I weighed about 120 pounds soaking wet. We had a team loaded with talent, and I worked my ass off to just make the varsity squad. He probably thought he was going to embarrass me.

I stood in the box and this guy threw 3 pitches that were about helmet high, which I didn't swing at. He made some kind of comment about how he was going to stop throwing if I wasn't swinging. The next pitch was dead center and I hit a screaming line drive right up the middle and hit him square in the thigh.

He was done pitching after that. Another coach drug out a net and threw BP to everyone else.
