Hooray!
My, isn't your association a little anal retentive. Someone pass me a bag of seeds, please (but only if I'm working the bases).
Rich: With such an attitude, we wouldn't certify you in our association.

Our umpires, about 120, overwhelmingly supported the ban - in a vote. We think chewing seeds on the field is the ultimate in non-professionalism.

"You're out!! Oops, sorry about the seeds, man."
