Thanks for the good info. I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something.
Turned out that the blue I was to "evaluate" was an unknown commodity to the association. He was being used because we had no extras to draw upon.
Pregame conference was a prelude of coming "attractions". Knew I was in for a long night when, with a runner advancing to third, I glance over to see him running up the line with his mask on. Now the runner decides to go home - and I've got a runner advancing from 1B. It was hard to keep from laughing.
Third inning - he splits his pants.
Between each 1/2 inning we had a "training session". That's tough duty on both sides. I didn't want to demoralize him nor send him into brain overload.
Good guy, just never was trained properly or if at all. We'll work with him - he was hungry for some guidance.
