The long game.

[chuck chopper]

My worst. Baseball game 17yr olds playing, 90 ft size diamond. July 1984. 95 degrees, I was umpiring solo. Tournament game 4 hours ,17 innings. I then had one more game solo 2HRS, and one more with a buddy 2 more Hours, Thank Goodness my Buddy showed up!! He wasn't supposed to even help me, but he heard what I was going through and drove 2 miles, & just jumped in to do the bases.
.
I will always remember how he saved my life.
