Memorial Day weekend was the 1 year anniv of the umpire in our area having a stroke from the heat right after walking off the field.

That game a coach told this umpire "you get off the field and get in the shade and get some water or I forfeit this game", The umpire, not wanting to cause girls to forfeit went over, sat down in the shade and had a stroke.

Hes now our assigner but will never umpire again.

Hydrate is #1 gentleman.
