Tampa vs. Toronto Wednesday

Not something you see everyday... Jerry Crawford leaves game in the 3rd inning after getting a foul ball right square in the mask.... Tom Hallion takes over gets hit in the midsection with a foul ball leaves momentarily... Brian O'Nora takes over for him while Hallion takes over at third... hope everyone is ok

If both Crawford and Hallion had been unable to continue, what would they have done? I can't imagine an MLB game continuing with only 2 umpires, but IDK what their policy is on that.

Why would they not go to two man if necessary? College basketball will go to two man if someone gets hurt. It might have been awhile for those guys since they've done two man but if they can do three man they can do two. IMO

I have no doubt they COULD do it; my question is does MLB have a policy for what they WOULD do?
