Yesterday I was assigned to work a team that I had a couple of weeks ago in a 29-4 game. The team they were playing was a good team with a winning record but after 2 it was 15-0. Luckily the winning coach starting pulling his starters after the second inning and stopped running his players so we were able to complete 7-innings in only 2:20 with a score of 19-3. I dread games like this. The winning teams F1 couldn’t throw a ball (lots of wicked strikes) and the other F1’s could hardly throw a strike and if they did it was hit.

The Mercy Rule should be adopted

He had forgotten to put his uniform in his car so he was in his work clothes but did have a black cap and an indicator. He apologized and told me that while this was only his 2nd game with our association he was a good umpire, even cocky.

In my HS association you MUST be properly dressed. If the umpire in question showed up as you indicated, he would not work with me.
