And you didn't say anything about the navy blue "dazzle" shirt they are wearing. I hated the dazzle material. IMO, way too showy for an umpire.

A couple times on batters this small I have been tempted to work scissors.
Now before you laugh or whatever too much, I did see an umpire work scissors at a Western National (16U) in 2005. In fact he was my partner for a couple games. Not only did he work scissors, but he was 5'2" on a good day...so he was reallllllllllllllllllly low. I didn't know if the UIC was going to voodoo or doodoo. What I do on batters this size is just widen my feet. If you are flexible enough, even at MY weight, you CAN get down there and work those pesky little 10Us...and get up...and not be in any worse shape afterwards than working Gold. Well, except for wanting the catchers to give you the glove so you can catch all those pitches that otherwise hit ya.
