The extra guy was an accident. The kid in cream was supposed to have the plate, but got there late. I was stuck on the stick, with six base umpires. The big guy on the left was going to working a Regional (ended up on the NW championship dish on ESPN), so I wanted him to see all the spots in a six man crew in one night.
We rotated positions every inning (well, not me), and the odd guy out got to eat dinner, and take the order for the next guy out. Plus, he was in charge of heckling the other guys on the field. It was really good fun.
The guy second on the left had the plate for Juniors World Series final game the other evening. That's a pretty good crew right there.
