An observation about lightning

[tiger49]

I like to use a loose interpretation of rule 3.17 (OBR)

"Players and substitutes of both teams shall confine themselves to their team's benches unless actually participating in the play or preparing to enter the game, or coaching at first or third base. No one except players, substitutes, managers, coaches, trainers and bat boys shall occupy a bench during a game."

I then tell the managers that it is best to seek shelter for safety's sake and that I will allow about 10 minutes to warm-up when we get started again.
