A less friendly coach would add: "...either get this guy to hit the ball fair directly at one of your fielders, or we're putting in the pop-out to the infield pitcher! ...and none of us want Behrens out there!"
My Coach used to yell at me when I got back to the dugout: "Listen, you little weasel - if you strike out the sides again, I'm sticking you in right-field and putting in the long-ball-to-right pitcher!"
