Braves Umpire Night

[JaxRolo]

Seems pretty cool!

 

The clinic will begin at 10 AM and run until 1 PM on the morning of the game. Also, keep in mind that the
association with the highest number of umpires to register will have the chance for one of your umps to say
“Play Ball†before the game.

Family and friends will have the opportunity to participate in a parade around the field before the game, and
all registered umpires will get to be a part of a special on-field pre-game presentation where the Atlanta Braves
will set the Turner Field Record for most umpires to simultaneously call a strike. All tickets will also include access
to a post game concert by country artist, Big & Rich.

Feel free to pass my information along for your umpires to contact directly with questions.

Two members of our staff will be instructing at this clinic.  Executive Director of PBUC Justin Klemm and Field Evaluator/Instructor Dusty Dellinger.  Should be a great time.

 

Hope to see you there.

Now that is funny!

 

In all seriousness we should have a good staff assembled for that day.  From Rich Rieker to Cris Jones, Larry Young, Chuck Meriwether and Ed Rapuano it should be a great day.

Is a similar promotion being considered anywhere else?

Or, more appropriately, "save the horse$hit, dump a rat!".
