So this could be apochryphal and is being told about fourth-hand here, but...

Two fine umpires working for an organization not represented by SMSUA. Girls FP. PU is blocked and can't see the batted ball hit the (right handed) batter. She's easily thrown out at first. OC asks PU to get help from BU, who is in C.

They (of course!) don't come together to talk. PU doesn't remove mask, points to his partner, and shouts, "Did you see the ball hit the batter?"

"Yes! AND she was out of the box."
