There is this college umpire with whom I occasionally work--for privacy reasons I won't reveal that his name is Kevin--(thank God it's only occasionally, if that) who has the largest Napoleon complex I have ever seen (yes, he's all but 5'4" or something). He does exactly what you did--takes 3rd as a plate ump when the ball is rolling down the line. In fact, I'll go one better: when the ball is rolling down the FIRST base line, he takes the call at first. I kid you not.

Now, he has never done this when working with me, and we have never discussed it (several fellow umpires have confirmed this, though). However, if he ever tried this schit with me, I'd pound him into the sand after the game.

Lordy, Lordy, it's so hard to soar like an eagle when you work with turkeys.
