I find it completely repulsive that an umpire would inject himself/herself into the game and affect the outcome. As the game wanes on, you call what you called in the first inning. What was a strike in the 1st inning is a strike now and what was an out in the 1st inning is an out now. Umpires that change their calls and zones with the game, in my opinion, should not be on the field - period.

All that said, HS varsity game in the 6th hour and the bottom of the 17th inning with 2 outs, as I watch the fly ball to F8, I am thinking "Come on, kid, just catch the damn ball!".
