Ode To the Ump

Watch him there behind the plate The guy referred to as "blue" "Hey blue, you must be blind! How could you call that ball strike two?" He takes the ribbing all in stride Been doing this for many years Loves the game, the fans, the kids Lots of fun and yes, sometimes tears To soon the season will be over and done But next year the kids will come to play The ump will smile and call "batter up!" He'll be having fun just like he is today…. My husband has been a Little League Umpire of many years. He loves it!
