lineup card question

[Andy]

It looks like we all agree that there is no "official" way to keep a lineup card. Two points to consider however:

1. If another umpire needs to finish your game at a later date becuase of weather, power outage, etc., it is helpful to have the original lineup card to use.

2. If a game is protested and the lineup card needs to be consulted to resolve the protest, it should be easy to follow by another party besides the umpire.

I am a member of Cactus Umpires and have been fortunate enough to be in the class that Emily presented the lineup card method. I use a variation of it that I like.

Go with what works for you, but make sure others can follow if necessary.
