UIC is also using an ump who only works the bases - well that screws everyone else. I urged him back in Feb. not to use base only umps - he didn't listen.
He also has umps doing base games then a plate game immediately following ... yeah that will keep us on schedule.
Gonna be interesting ............ ugh.

The UIC better hope that the ump in question doesn't have some sort of medical issue doing games in those temps. If he does, the UIC could very well be in for a legal battle as a result of his scheduling, even if the ump agreed.
