first ejection in a while

[Dakota]

I've read lots of coaches complaining about a tight zone (mostly on eteamz coach's board), but I've never actually met an umpire who admits to it.

I'm sure it happens, but ...

Anyway, as to the time issue, even with a time limit, a walk-a-thon can seem a lot longer. Not only that, unless you have a drop dead clock, that last inning can go on and on and on (even with a per inning run limit - it takes quite awhile to walk in five runs!).

Even umpires like to enjoy the game!
