Definitely the right call to make on pushing back the games.

 

Would rather see a long day of play than some player or ump dropping from heat exhaustion.

From my understanding there was a majority vote and the majority won, so no split sessions which was idiotic in my opinion. Plus with this, IF they did go with the split sessions, no one wanted to have games at 9 & 11. What are these coaches thinking? The last team did not get out of there until almost 12:30 which is ridiculous.

Absolutely agree...in the end, it's all about the safety of the kids. Heck, who could argue that? Anybody who does ought to have to watch the game in catching gear themselves.

It was hotter at 4pm than it had been earlier in the day when they suspended the games. The brief rain we had just made everything thick and nasty.

Everyone agrees about safety, not only for the kids but grandparents in attendance, but make the schedule changes on Saturday at the draw when they are giving record heat on Monday for people that are traveling long distances to see the games if all that is being asked. This will happen again next year because Memorial Day is always cooking, so eliminate the 10am and 12:30 games, go with 5:30 and 8:00 and add a day. Thought yesterday's heat was just as bad in the morning and early afternoon as it got later. Were getting close to having a Midnite Madness regional tournament:rolleyes:

Or play at 8 & 10 and 5 & 7 or 6 & 8. However, I do not think the coaches will vote on it! They had their chance to make it for 9 & 11 yesterday and no one wanted to get there that early.
