Bob,

I'm still working 9/10 & 11/12 games alone.

I'd love to work up to higher levels though!

I stand by my statement that there's no reason (other than *potentially* game management -- it might give you a chance to talk quietly to the pitcher or a player) for the umpire to clean the bases (other than the plate) or the rubber.

This applies whether the participants are 9 or 90.
