Ah, this whole thread reminds me of the "Sheps Rule" in the Missouri Valley Conference, where the third base umpire is required to carry an indicator in every game. After a forgotten count--none of the three umpires on the crew had the correct count--led to a major brouhaha a while back (ejections, cost a team a run, you name it!), this "rule" was implemented conference-wide.
