Nothing could have prevented this. Just thought it might be interesting to share.

Very unfortunate...one player didn't make it.

I'm working the R position for the first time tomorrow night and have to deal what's left over of Ivan. I'll be real strict on the 30-30 rule especially since it's supposed to spawn T-storms in the Southern NJ area.

Joe don't stop the game if a mother takes a flash picture. I almost did that today!

right after I returned from Iraq, I stopped a ball game for small arms gunfire...it was really some kid popping fire crackers in the front yard.

Coach comes out - "What are you doing?"

my partner says - "leave him alone, he just got back."

Coach - "oh" and shuffles back to the dugout without another word.

I felt pretty stupid about it all.
