Good day today. Worked a couple of GREAT games in the international part of the tournament - Korea defeated Mexico and Japan beat Panama. Had a few calls at my bases, but nothing too difficult.
I have been very lucky during this tournament so far, in that every game has been close and very good baseball. Man, can these kids play! I have been very impressed with their skills and sportsmanship.
Today, we also got to hang out with Gerry Davis' MLB Umpiring crew. Very cool guys and very supportive of us. Took some pictures and listened to stories. Go their autographs on my LL red flag.
Tonight, we all got passes to go to the MLB/LL challenge. Outstanding show fans of all ages. The Phillies were down 7-2 when we left in the 8th.
Tomorrow, I will be calling in to Dale Duff's radio show at 7:30 for an interview. It will be on 92.9 (The Ticket).
Tomorrow's schedule is posted - I have a late start tomorrow, so I will do my best to get some pictures up.
Time for sleep now
