Shes a paid scorekeeper, effectively a 3rd blue.

I had the plate in the championship game today, which was for money (and not a small amount) and she did it again. This time I knew exactly the number of the runner she missed, since I knew who scored.

BS that its not a umpire problem because it quickly becomes an umpire problem when the score is wrong and you are in the middle. I got a game to work and I shouldnt be worrying about whether she is getting the runs right.

She disappeared for a few minutes then returned and put the run on the board, so not sure who she went and asked or how she got it figured out, but she did it without input from me and only a little heckling from the teams about the scoreboard. Maybe she is new, dunno.
