Once I feel that a player's reaction time will be affected, the game is going to end very quickly. The last thing we need is a line shot back at the pitcher that she can't even get a glove on.

If I'm the base umpire and I have to strain at all to see the ball, it's time to shake hands.

One team may not be happy, but I can at least go to bed knowing I did what was right, even if it wasn't popular.
