And if it is FP and it is a one-umpire game, I have no problem with calling time at that point.
Guilty as charged, Mike!

The only thing I can say in my defense is I only do JO FP, so I come at all of these discussions from that perspective.

Around here, virtually ALL of our FP games are one man games. We only use 2 man in invitational tournament championships and in official ASA Championship play.

I can't tell you how many times I've had coaches gripe about runners at 1B leaving early, or pitchers taking a little hop, or a missed (or made) swipe tag on a throw down to 2nd, or.... I just tell 'em that if getting those calls right every time is a priority, they should hire a 2 man crew.
