Exactly. Anything below 70 at game time, I pull out the long sleeve

Concur about no long sleeve shirts on the bases. And, for the love of God, NO LONG SLEEVES UNDER YOUR SHORT SLEEVES (sorry for the outburst)! I know no one in these forums would do such a thing, but there are guys in my association who do...every...year. Even after hearing our board members strictly forbidding the practice. But I am a high school teacher, so I'm used to people not following directions. 

The only exception I have to not wearing a jacket behind the plate in when the conditions are drizzly and wet. But then, I wear the Smitty pullover with the open bottom so it tucks in nicely. Plus, it has the pocket on the left chest to keep the line up cards.

So, in conclusion:

plate = short/long sleeves or plate coat,

bases = short sleeves or jacket.

Last year I worked with a very good umpire from Las Vegas. It was in the upper 50s-low 60s. I was in my cut off jacket on the bases. All the players were in short sleeves. It was partly cloudy and beautiful! 

My partner.... full thermal long sleeve + plate coat! Lol

Growing up in the midwest, anything above 40, we considered "shorts and t-shirt weather."

Which is basically 60 in the PNW, right?

Well, growing up in California, we consider anything below 70 to be sweatshirt and jeans weather. Anything below 50 and we shut down for the day

Yes. You're right. My mistake. And I am a Giants fan. My family is from NoCal
