When umpires fall

[bluehair]

Recently a constant drizzle made the grass slippery, the dirt clingy. I fell flat on my back moving into/stopping for a steal at 2B. That night I found my old soccer boots, cleaned them up and put them in the car. But then I remember the screwdriver that F1 was using to dig mud out of his cleats. How silly would I look, using that screwdriver to dig mud out of my cleats. How useless would my soccer cleats be if I didn't (cleats caked full of mud).

Maybe if I use the soccer boots and I stay in B/C the whole game and avoid the dirt/mud all together, it would work. The solution instead is to tread lightly. I may not get to where I'd prefer to be...those are the condition that game.
