Other than that, except for the occasional bush-league play (fielder standing in baseline waiting to catch pop-fly and runner runs into him) and the fact that they never secured their bases to the ground it was a fun league.

Oh yeah, and they always had those ice-cream trucks, Hispanic style, stop by the games. The spectators and players loved this corn in the cob on a stick with cheese type food. It sure smelled nasty.

i worked that same league this summer.
it was an absolute disaster of a league, except for the $65 that it paid.

Are you sure about the pay? I haven't done it for a while but I know I got more than 65. They also played at the complex on the east side of Sycamore too. Did they play with old bases that weren't staked to the ground?? Either way the funny thing about umping in that league was when I was in Aurora there would be Mexicans playing soccer ALL around us. I assumed that the baseball players were the soccer "rejects".
