Pete;
Umpires who turn back games drive assignors crazy. Jim Porter is right on with regard to that.
Yes, you are right. Umpires turn back crappy games far more often than they turn back good games. We assingors are well aware of the "games" that the umpires are playing with us.
In that regard, I never minded the rare occasions that an umpire turned back a good game. I got to make points with other umpires by offering them good games. Good games are never difficult to give away. For some reason, the umpire who can't make a crappy game, can clear up his schedule to make a good game. I wonder why that is. :o)
