Should the Toms River Little League's Enact this Rule?
For years, officials with the Deptford Township Little League say a small number of spectators yell at the umpires for calls they don't like.
Now league officials say if you fight with the umps, you could find yourself making the calls.
Spring is here and the fields are being prepped for another season of Little League baseball in Deptford.
"The kids love it. The kids come up to you, they're all excited, it's great," said Deptford Township Little League President Don Bozzuffi.
And so this season, Deptford Township Little League is trying out a new rule: if you fight with the umps during a game, you have to volunteer your time to umpire three games before you're allowed back as a spectator.
"The main purpose is not for them to be able to call a baseball game, but for them to see what's going on out here and it's not that easy," said Bozzuffi.
