I have to admit I'm guilty of doing too many games in the heat. I work outside everyday at my "job that pays the bills" so the heat doesn't bother me. I drink alot of water, up to a gallon a day, usually will finish off a liter bottle during any game I work the plate. I have seen umpires loose focus from doing too many in one day. That only effects the players. The money is alot of the reason we're there but the players deserve the best effort each game.
