I don't think it needs 11 parts though. But maybe they need the material for filler.
Maybe 2. Either you ask or you don't, and either you call what you saw or go along with Smitty.

Uh, I don't think Peter's 11-part series is on the Check Swing, David. I think it is generally on the value of Internet umpiring. All the same, around 9000 words does seem a bit excessive even for the latter subject. The longest series I ever managed was on Umpire Ethics, and that ran to only 7 parts.
My series on the Check Swing appeal, entitled
Help of a Half Swing, was only 3 parts: roughly What It Is (part 1), How To Handle It (part 2) and When To Refuse It (part 3). Of course Part 3 was easily the most controversial.
