Thoughts about honoring Robinson aside, what are your thoughts about the way some teams are going about it. Is having an entire roster of #42s without names on the back a good idea from an umpiring standpoint?
In a MLB game, the umpires know who the players are. They report, and are listed, on the batting order card by name.
