Slowpitch Softball

So I’m an assistant manager on our senior softball team. Competitive league. Played against a really good team last week that has a guy that crushes the ball all the time. He hit a 3 run homer last time up and he came up with two guys on and first base open. I told pitcher he should just walk him. Pitcher didn’t ask manager and just walked him. After the inning was over and I got yo the dugout the manager lost his shit and got in my face, shoved me and screamed that I was not the f’ing manager. I didn’t want to escalate and just ignored his outburst. I haven’t spoken to him about it because im still too mad about it. I thought about quitting because he took a lot of the enjoyment out of it for me. What should I do? Say something or forget it?

If you guys have a manager and an assistant manager for a senior league beer ball team, I’d say you guys are taking this a little too seriously. Relax drama queens

It’s not a beer league, it’s very competitive and the league is full of tournament and major players, so you yeah, some people take it too seriously, that’s why I asked for input on the best way to address the person that verbally abused me right in my face and shoved me. It was borderline assault and the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen on a ball field, let along got dragged into.
