Calling a game your kid is in

[dak1611]

I got called in the morning of my son's LL game. The UIC knew I was a High School umpire and he really needed someone for that nights game. I told him I would do it, but he needed to let the other coach know that my son was on the opposing team. Not a problem the coach said....Well after 4 innings...my kid had a perfect game going....and i was making him hit a pie plate. Needless to say...a single in the 5th kept me from sleeping on the couch that night. But I must say...It was a joy to call pitches for my kid.
