But WN, DC-N, or SE in SoCal could do it, in addition to JV or DN (sorry for the initials, but these people may not want their name associated with this effort; I'm only saying they are well enough placed to make that type of umpire roster happen). There are probably others that I don't know (I'm assuming that the ASA staff would be conflicted out, but add DM, RA, MB, DB, and others).

Thats kind of what i was thinking, he lined up an assigner who made some promises. I'm dont care about the officials part of this. If I wasnt working nats I might even be willing to work it. Be a lot of good ball there!
