I just can't believe this. Based on this posters' other comments I'm not taking this seriously. There is the possibility of some truth to this, though...

This is the actual thread:
Baseball VS Softball mechanic - Forums

not true

This quote from the site might offer up a clue to the credibility of someone...

"Over half of the regional crew in the Alabama regional did not belong there. (Not just my opinion but a coach who was there estimated 5-6 umpires on that regional didn't belong there.)"

There were only 4 umpires assigned to the Alabama regional.

Me thinks the site, the poster, or the coach, perhaps all 3, are lacking!

The site is great. For baseball umpiring. But like I said, it doesn't take much to answer softball questions over there. In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king and all...

And I knew there were only 4 umpires to a regional, but I was done wasting my time with "Mr. I Know Softball" over there.
