In a completely unrelated topic & in an effort to get to 7 pages, allow me to add this. So last night we are slated to play a makeup game from a rainout (away game). We get there & all good. Everyone takes BP, IF, Pitchers get loose & we are set for 6 PM start. Problem is that there are no umpires. Everyone standing around & finally after much debate & confused coach conversation, we are told to pack it up & go home. No game! I'm not kidding!
Thank you for you contribution to this thread. Please don't discount the relevancy of your post as it appears everyone showed with an intent to help their team win. I applaude each and every player for taking BP and all those pitchers who got loose. I do think, however, that this may have been a good opportunity for the players to make their own calls - or maybe have them all start out with a 3-1 count with runners on and see how they respond.
