Meeting Dr. Hale

Earlier today while sitting in the stands waiting for the Nebraska-Germany consolation game, a gentleman approached me asked if I had umpired the Panama vs. Uganda game and the West vs. Southeast game. That gentleman was no other than Dr. Creighton Hale of Little League fame. I was awestruck in that not only did he seek me out, but also by his praise and congratulations. Then he gratefully thanked me for being here to umpire. We had a very pleasant conversation during which i had us photographed together. I am very deeply humbled by this experience.
