Don......that used to get my goat when I played SP softball......the umpires seemed to get into a hurry to kill the ball when stuff was still going on.
My FP association picked up a fairly new league last year that had used a SP association that was closer to them. They had the problem of the umpires calling time at the end of each play......drove the FP coaches crazy.
They now have our association to drive them crazy....
