Wow!
Echo, echo, echo ...
Never have I, nor will I leave a partner on the field. The coward who did that is essentially not a real umpire. I don't need to know anything else about the coward as a person or an umpire to make those conclusions.
I will always enter the fray in defense of any human being in peril who is being wrongly treated in any setting. I have done so more times than i can count, so I would unhesitatingly do so for any umpire. And in the above situation, after order was restored, I would verbally consume the coward non-umpire who left his partner on the field.
NJ, you're the man for standing up for a brother.
