- AL umpire Joe Brinkman, who lived in Cocoa, FL during the off-season, would fill us in on these type stories while conducting free clinics for the local FHSAA umpires @ Cocoa Expo, which was purchased by Brinkman & NL ump Bruce Froeming, who lived in Daytona Beach during the early 90's. Brinkman liked his suds and was a helluva good guy.

Gotta luv the quote by the early 1900's famed CHRISTY MATHEWSON:
''Many fans look upon an umpire as a sort of necessary evil to the luxury of baseball, like the odor that follows an automobile.''
