I remember being assaulted once and causing the team to loose the game.
And this statement right here concerns me the most. Threats are bad enough, but this obviously escalated beyond just words. No umpire, no matter WHAT the situation, should ever have to endure this.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
