Would you take the field with this guy?

Jeff, you stated that you would believe a clinician telling you the facts. Then you found out that I am one of them. I am not claiming anything. I copied and pasted what you and every other baseball official can see on our site. Craig wrote what he did. I merely repeated it.

We have the same problem in basketball where clinicians are telling officials different things. I will ask him for clarification and yes I did read the words but did not interpret it other than what happens in the post season when those comments were so close to what we discussed at a meeting. Again I said this was discussed at a meeting, I just want to make it clear for myself.

Seriously Jeff, there is NO MENTION OF POSTSEASON anywhere in his post made in April. If an umpire is confused by that then they really shouldn't be working a varsity schedule.

The handbook states the policy for uniforms. It is the same as Craig's admonition.

Post season uniforms are a whole different matter and not relevant to our discussion.

Just so you know when Dave implemented the policy to use whatever pullover color we wished, it was not reflected in Handbook.
Peace

I was aware of it. Dave is no longer here. Anthony is no longer here. Craig made his clarification after some of us were confused by what we were seeing. I wore what my partners did, which was largely the black shirt and jacket. One day, someone who knows me to be a baseball clinician commented that he was going to rate me poorly because of it. Yes, he was from another group and figured he'd improve his standing by tossing me under the bus. It didn't work.
