In Ohio, the state baseball philosophy is: "do what you can to get the game in." Between bad weather, fields that aren't ready, and other factors beyond our control, ignoring the mark on the baseball is something clearly within our power.
Consistent with that principle, we, too, are instructed to play the game and report the infraction. Most umpires I know do at least half of that.
