Major League Umpires

You really like baseball, huh? Luckily I knew some umpires and second basemen. Ha!

Funny umpire story: One Christmas I asked for Ron Luciano's book The Umpire Strikes Back. Come Christmas Eve, I open a small gift from my Grandma. It's a paperback copy of The Empire Strikes Back. Ha! (Do they still put out those little 'novels' of movies?)

"Oh, Umpire! I didn't think you liked Star Wars."

Once again the Confessor misses by one collecting on the speed bonus. I don't know if he's been the only one so afflicted, but since he mentioned it once, I will say this: if I had it to do over again, I'd do without the speed bonus. It penalizes people who can't play at given times during the day, and it seems to have cost me some participation over the long haul. Kudos to Ed and tan and gsabc and some of the others who play later in the day, but have played consistently (and extremely well!) all month.
