Larry said "Absolutely the ump is liable in a HS game - it's happened in WV. While walking the field there was a sign leaning against the fence that the umps tossed over the outfield fence. During the game, a gust of wind picked it up and it hit a guy in the stands (15-20' away). He sued and won!"

The guy who provided the expert testimoney in this case is a friend.

From my standpoint - If there is some issue that needs to be addressed, have the school take care of it. Then we can play ball.
