I didn’t know that about Orel
But I sure recall that about Drysdale

I ump’d about 7 years.  Never called not getting out of the way.  Players were 14 and younger.  But every so often a manager or fan would complain.

I remember playing little league, and a pitch was coming inside and I ducked. The ball hit the top of my batting helmet, and the opposing manager argued that I intentionally let the pitch hit me. And this was in the minor leagues, as I was not very good. Dopey coaches at all levels. . . .
