UIC is also using an ump who only works the bases - well that screws everyone else. I urged him back in Feb. not to use base only umps - he didn't listen.
He also has umps doing base games then a plate game immediately following ... yeah that will keep us on schedule.
Gonna be interesting ............ ugh.
Not good... but has all the signs of an umpire shortage.
