Got into a discussion with another umpire today and neither of us has a book in front of us.

Here is the situation:

middle of the game,
A is a starter.
B pinch hits for A and singles
C pinch runs for B
inning ends
Coach wants to re-enter A on defense.

Is it allowed?

lol, it is warmer here.

No snow during April games and sometimes whole weeks when the temps reach 100.

Otherwise the kids are still kids and some of them are good and some of them not so much.

The main difference is that pitching staffs here do not need to be as deep as in the north because the season is more spread out and teams only play a coupl days a week and in the north you get pushed back further into the spring for the start date and so they play more games per week.

Yep, I was FVB in Chicago (I miss those guys, the comaraderie here is nothing like what that group of guys has) but my experience has landed me with a position on the board of directors of the Ft Worth umpire's chapter (the Alliance Umpire's Association) the last 2 years and a couple weeks back I was elected to another 2 year term that begins in June. Maybe I can work to improve some things here. lol
Thats good to hear!...always heard good things about FVB...cream rises to the top brother! congrats on the BOD election....
