A 38-year-old youth baseball coach from Oklahoma, identified as Michael Ryals, has been permanently banned from all sanctioned events after directing his 12-year-old son to throw a baseball at an opposing team’s dugout during a recent youth tournament. Witnesses said the pitch, thrown in apparent retaliation following disputes over officiating and player conduct, traveled with significant speed toward players and coaches on the bench. No serious injuries were reported, but the confrontation halted the game. On May 30, 2026, the national sanctioning body issued a lifetime ban, citing gross unsportsmanlike conduct and endangerment of minors, and announced a review of safety protocols.
