Jackets

[Rich]

Quite frankly, the jackets were the least troubling aspect of the game to me. Not really troubling at all -- if that's acceptable in softball, then it is. Have at it.

However, I can't remember one call on a tag play the entire game (at least the half I watched) where a base umpire came set for the play. There was one steal of second where the ball got dropped where the umpire was still in mid-run when the ball, fielder, and runner came together.

Not sure about the softball world, but this would be a serious ding in NCAA baseball, where a major point of emphasis this year is coming completely set for all plays.
