Sometimes I think fans might be happier with cameras calling the game and robots calling the strike zone. Good call, Rob Drake. Lou, he's not an antagonist (nor do I think he has a vendetta), you are just a bitter old man whose team will never win the World Series. I'm glad I found this site---I umpire for ages 12-18 and I am a patched umpire.

Best,

P.S. Is there a way that I could email or get in contact with Mr. Drake? His email is no longer working and he doesn't frequent this board often. Thanks in advance.
Let me guess. You're a Sox Fan.
