This is just a disgrace. This kid should go out and buy $400 worth of proper equipment and clothing.
The players should also go out and buy real baseball pants, not just the ones with the elastic waistband. Get rid of those t-shirt jerseys while they are at it, too. What is anyone at that field thinking? |

His shin guards cover his whole leg! Now that's protection!
 I'd be proud if my son or daughter wanted to get into umping that early. That's just awesome. |

So what?
I have a bunch of 11-12 year olds that umpire for me. Buying proper clothing, when they're growing so quickly, is stupid. Just do the best with what you've got, and act the part. The kid's 10, so lighten up Francis. |

So the old adage really is true. Umpiring is the one profession where you're expected to be perfect the first day on the job- and then get better as you go along!
Lord, I'm glad nobody recorded the first game I ever worked and posted in for millions to see...
