LLWS Umpires (Oregon vs Georgia)

[GarthB]

I share Pete's disappointment.

The quality level at LL Regionals and LLWS over the past two years had moved up a notch; and with all the fanfare on the boards of even higher quality people going this year, I was anticipating enjoying some good umpiring.

Sadly, the regionals took at least a five year step back and the early viewing of Williamsport shows no evidence of being much better.

Of course, my buddy has two games the first two days total -- both on outfield lines. I'll be there tomorrow and Monday, so I'll get a better look then.
