Work with a blue who is rock solid. But he does the interrupt the game thing always.
Here's a recent example. I'm PU. He's BU. 14 U Championship game of the Association. R1 on 2b,R2 on 1B. 2-2 count on batter. Ball in the dirt. Both runners steal. Now we have full count, runners on 2b & 3B. Full count,1 run game 7th inning....The tension is thick, everybody at the complex is watching the game. I hear a big "TIME". So we stop play,I'm wondering does my partner have something......He does-he runs across the diamond to clean 1B off. I laugh inside. He is also pretty slow about his janitorial duties.Lots of grumbling from the peanut gallery. I'm quietly amazed and amused by it all. So we wait for him, I kid you not it takes about a minute from "TIME" to him getting back into position in the C slot.....
I ask him about it. The "man" who does the college hiring around here wants squeaky clean bases and so it is....
I guess it's in Rome do as the Romans do thing......
