Two strikes and they're out—of $900.

Strike one: Seems no one in Union Township, Ohio, did a background check on William Mitchell — whose criminal record includes DUI, criminal mischief and receiving stolen property — before letting him coach the "Little Sluggers" baseball team.

Strike two: The 7- and 8-year-old boys lost the proceeds from their cookie-dough fundraiser — earmarked for team pictures, trophies and season-ending party — and Mitchell was charged with theft for pocketing it.

"Our children are supposed to trust these people," angry parent Jeff Ducklaw told Cincinnati's WCPO-TV, "and we have a criminal teaching our kids baseball."
