I don't think I've done over 2 baseball games in a day yet, and that is fine with me. I only do HS varsity/JV and then Legion and some college league stuff during the summer, so my games don't have time limits very often. I did have 6 junior high softball games last Saturday. 1:20 time limit and $45 a game isn't too bad for one day's work.

Me and my partner did 6 10U games on Saturday - 1:30 time limit, no break between games. We managed to stay on schedule for the most part, the last game started 15 minutes late because the previous game was won in the bottom of the last inning so it ran over the time limit.

We rotated where he did G1 behind the plate, I did G2/G3, he did G4/G5, and I did G6. Doing two in a row behind the plate wasn't bad, although 3 would have been pushing it as far as quality. Fortunately it was only about 80 degrees and there was a nice breeze. We rotated this way so that we didn't unnecessarily delay each game start with gear changes.

I'm one of your 'older' umpires (well, not old old, but I'm no 21-year old!)

Haven't done more than 3 in one day yet and I don't think I'd want to. The day I did 3, it was mid-August in the high-90's; maybe if it was cooler I could handle another one.

The most I have scheduled for this season is 3 again, and only once - other than that, a lot of DHs and that's just fine by me.
