Would you take the field with this guy?

I have a couple grey ball bags and used them in my last Super. When the vendors show up at the IHSA, NCAA or local meetings, I don't see anything but black there. Black was approved for playoffs in IHSA ball, probably because the other colors have limited availability.

I saw the note about white on Jeff's shoes and that is not an issue any longer. From the bigs on down, you will see white on umpire's shoes - usually the bases, but even some plate shoes have the MLB logo in white now. Tourney ball is on TV now and I saw more than a few sporting white on their Reeboks. I prefer all black but wear a 13 so I take what is available and not upcharged for size. The new Reeboks (plate and base) fit the bill this year.

Actually that was not a problem before I worked that Finals. I knew several guys that wore shoes with white on their shoes before I got there. The only reason I ever tried this was because of what others did. Those happened to be my most comfortable shoes so that is what I wore. I was prepared to mark the white N out.
