[fastpitch]

We played in Panama City Beach during a heat wave a few years ago when the local news was talking about the golfers keeling over on the local courses. I'll never forget watching the other team's left fielder collapse after retrieving a ball that got on the field then she was up to bat the next inning and the coach put her up there since he was out of players - her eyes looked dilated - was an obvious heat stroke that the coach nor the umpires addressed - very scary. As a rookie umpire, what little exposure I had to the heat this year I sure learned who doesn't get to get out of the sun between innings.
