No, that information is not correct, Reed was replaced by Ted Barrett, the second base umpire. Any that is also misquoted. What story would call an MLB umpire a "professional"? The actual story states that "home plate umpire Rick Reed", not "professional umpire Rick Reed"

PLAY FAIR! LL to NCAA Head SHOT stories are also welcome.
Play fair? I don't get it. Thats not even a baseball term. I'm sorry to waste everyone's time calling MORE attention to this post, but the more I read it, the more strange it seems to me.

*sigh*
