I am not saying that umpiring a baseball game is easy. I am saying that it is not the same as working a basketball game. I know I am going to do a considerable amount of physical activity if I officiate a basketball game. If I do not work the plate in baseball, I might fall asleep because nothing is really going on. Even in a 90 degree day.
