WATCH: Texas coach arrested after assault during youth softball game
MCALLEN, Texas (KVEO) — An umpire's call during a Texas softball game resulted in one coach behind bars — and not those of the dugout.
On Saturday night, during the last game of the evening at the Protect Our Nation's Youth International Softball League in McAllen, Texas, parents were in the stands watching their girls play a softball game.
During one of the plays, the umpire called an obstruction.
