I recall having read somewhere, 4 or maybe 5 years ago, that one reason to advocate pitch counts was directly related to what Dave wrote in one of his post:...
No, he didn't. He said there is evidence that excessive pitching does cause injury. Logic says, that less pitching could prevent the problem. There is...
I am perfectly fine with the pitch count rules, with one exception. At 20 pitches, the pitcher should be allowed to complete the current batter and retain...
I dont know IF it worked or not but at the games I was at and did they sure used a lot more pitchers and I like to see that ... LLWS in ... citation to ... ...

Check out this BOO story. The call in the story doesn't seem right to me. Anyone see this? Overbay listed 7th incorrecly batted in the 6 hole and got out....
No one other than Overbay is out at this point. The manager did not option to exercise the batting out of order. When Overlay was legalized, now whoever ...
I agree that Zuan (batting 8th) should have been called out since he was in fact the "correct" batter after the pitch to Hill legitimized Overbay's at bat....
Hill batted and doubled, that's when the M's brought up the BOO. So I guess the story should have read Hill's double nullified and Zuan out 2 out and 9 hole...
What the MLB crew did: They actually let Zaun hit and he struck out. It was, in fact, Hill who was ruled to have grounded out to the catcher instead of hitting...
Barry and Danny are right in everything they say in regards to the Junior Umpire School. I was the Outstanding Student in 2000(at 14 years old), and now ...
The umpires did screw the pooch on this one. Zaun should never have come to the plate. After the first pitch to Hill, Overbay fly-out became legit, and Zaun...
I never miss a chance to pimp this school. My son went last year, and our league sent two kids this year. As a local UIC, I'm going before our BoD to get...
Our league was looking to get some new umpire shirts and pants. The shirts would be a cream and black. The pants would probably be combo pants. What do you...

I'll second Honig's. After disappointments elsewhere, I get all clothing from them. From: llumpires@yahoogroups.com [mailto:llumpires@yahoogroups.com] On...
I'll third Honigs. I've never been disappointed with anything I've ever ordered from them, with the added bonus now, of living in Florida and getting Next Day...
Honig's is who I've also gone to in the past. Their shirts are just as good as Cliff Keen, and don't cost as much. The company is great for customer service....
Chris, I'll also agree with Honig's. If this is for a Little League (non-profit organization), call the nearest Honig's office. They were great in working...

POS is so bad, I had to help a crew in Lakewood get hats in time for their opener because POS had screwed them. Another friend of mine would usually get his...
