Unhappy Glad This Came Up

over the weekend I was working an NAFA tournament. Due to a lot of rain
on Fri. night, an ASA tournament had to be moved to the same complex we
were utilizing. We had two fields, they had two fields. I was able to watch
some of the ASA tournament on my off game.

First game I watched, I could not believe what I was seeing.

PU - hat on backwards
PU - when giving the count, used right hand for ball indiciation and left hand
for strikes.
PU - when talking with a coach making substitutions, left mask on. Rarely
took mask off between innings.

BU - hands folded, stationed inside with no runners, and seemed more
interestered with someone in the bleachers.
BU - while in C, never once looked at runners, and believe me offensive coach
was taking advantage. [runners were leaving early]

Neither umpire noticed that the pitcher was in front of the pitchers plate
when delivering the ball.

During a conversation after one of their games, which had nothing to do with
their game, I found that today my partner in my HS game between two teams
that are tied for 1st, is none other than the PU.
