I don't care the score, I want to know.
Now ... given that this call comes from someone that lost by 20, maybe it just goes in the memory bank - but I suspect that if this is really the attitude of the umpire, then THIS is not the only phone call I will get of this ilk on that guy. Even if it's not enough to act on, it could contribute to a pattern.
Like I said, I'd rather know.

No idea who assigns the league here.
This was the only problem was this guy. Other than that, he was great. Even made a great call when I was out by an eyelash at first. His attitude toward me irked me.
