Game Face of the Week (4)

It was a hot day and evening.  Someone wanted to be in charge.  I have images of calls gone bad, but these sum it up!  I won't name names or locations.  If they stumble on this, they know who they are.

The baseball game was put on hold for lightning way off in the distance.  A phone call was made to see about possibly resuming the game at a later day and time.  The answer was that the game needed to be continued after the threat of lightning had passed and this was communicated to the person above.  When told this, he immediately said to get that person on the phone because he wanted to talk to them.  He wasn't even the home plate umpire!

Needless to say the game continued late into the night and more than a few people thought many of the calls made by officials were just plain wrong.  The umpire above even had a fan removed for expressing displeasure at his officiating.
