I normally don't do baseball, but I was asked by my assigner to do a 4-5 grade baseball game for our rec league. I have it made clear by the assigner that he wants me on the bases. I show up with this information, only to find out my partner "doesn't have" plate equipment. He is a much larger man than myself, and I am not going through the hassle of changing the size of the equipment, so I ended up doing the plate. I don't think I was home for 5 minutes before the angry / frustrated email was sent to my assigner about the situation. Turns out the guy promised to by plate equipment several times and never did. He no longer umpires for the league.
