An Excellent Umpire
George Will has a good editoral about Bruce Froemming. If you haven’t read it, go check it out HERE. Here’s a brief excerpt:
On a recent night here, as on most summer nights for 37 years, Bruce Froemming went to work. He performed for about three hours in front of a large, attentive and opinionated audience. His job involves about 290 snap judgments, any of which might infuriate thousands of people. He has done his job well if no one notices him doing it. His goal is anonymous perfection.
As an umpire, this is an excellent article about an excellent umpire. Go read the whole thing. It is well worth the read.
