I guess you had to be there. 1 umpire for 14U. The teams paid the same amount as all other all star tourneys and got 2 umpires for that age group. I am just saying a BU might have a different call than a PU when a runner is stealing second and the pu is running up and in the 3rd base line while trying not to get hit by the batter and her practice swings OR, anything else a BU may have if there was a BU.

As for fans... I don't let them bother me anymore. I use to (5 or 6 years ago) have HUGE rabbit ears and let everything bother me. If thing get to out of hand I let the TD or coach take care of the problem. Otherwise I remember that this fans have an emotional and monetary investment in these games, and if they want to cheer or boo a call let them.

Also don't forget the poor All Star Coaches. I think they have a rougher time than we do during this time of year. I overheard a phone call a coach was on and he said, "We've only played 2 games and you are already bi***ing about your daughter not pitching. Oy Vey.
