Tournament executive „im- port Gerry 'Weir, sporting a muscle shirt•,at second, gave up his umping duties to don the cleats and found out how it feels to be called out on a close play. Weir twice was ...called for leaving the batter's box on foul tips that hit him. Theameproved one thin g g despite the errors -.that players suffer . after coming out of retirement. Playing good baseball is like riding a' bike. Once you know how you never forget. Air 'Umpires continued from page 1 arm down across their chest to their opposite hip as they spin away from the play crying "ou000t". .The umpires work in pairs like a pitcher and catcher. They have signals between each other so that the base men and' the' plate lump are informed on plays. If a batter attempts to bunt and checks his swing the plate ump Will glance to the base man for signal to see if the swing carried enough to call a strike. The time interval is so short the batter thinks that the plate man saw ,the play and made, the call h'imself. The" devotion the Ingersoll umpires have towards their job adds a .professionalism to an amateur game that greatly improves the quality of the contest. They devote the same energy to the.' game- that the players do and after a tough game they also follow the players in congratulations. While the players are on the infield congratulating one ;another the umpires are at home plate shaking each other''s ' hands dvising •one -- another of agoodgame. a1 To Jesus with....
