Unfortunately, I do not have a contact number of this umpire, but hopefully somebody on this board can provide you with his contact information.

Good luck.
That person is Mike Hodge, our umpire association's vice president. ASA did a story on him here:

Since this article, he has worked the 16A USA/ASA in 2006.

His contact info (email) is on our umpire association website, which is listed as my default website in my profile.
