Exactly, I'll be the first umpire to give another umpire crap for "letting a game" go to tie breaker (or anything delaying).
It doesnt mean i would ever make a call to prevent a game from going to tie breaker.
Of course, if I was in seattle, I wouldnt mind shaving off a few minutes to prevent it.. since its so common the coaches expect it and dont even ask about time
