    I’ve heard from a reliable source that in the next major bond package (probably 10 years away) there’s a plan for McCallum to be rebuilt into a 4 story high school. They’d build the majority of it on the baseball/softball fields so the school can stay open during construction. When complete, new ball fields and the remainder of the new campus would be built on the old school location. The teams would practice and play at northwest park in the interim.

    One of my sons played baseball against McCallum on their field recently. One kid on his team hit a kids'/parents' windshield on the exit drive as school was letting out.  oops.  Part of the left field wall is a school building with bars on the windows to protect against fly balls, but it looks like a prison.  They don't make em like that anymore. I'll be sad to see it go.  

    ps. it's a shithole.

    What is needed is umpires that don’t blow 4-6 calls every game. IMHO, reviews would go down if the overturn rate went down. If I was a coach, I would challenge something every time the opposing team scored a big run. 

    Umps will never get much better.  Each team should get 1 challenge, which they retain if correct.  No ump reviews allowed at all.

    You see why it takes near perfection to beat OU. The bottom of their order flattened two balls in the 7th, when they simply had to generate some offense against our most dependable recent pitcher. One ball was caught on a great play, the other went to the wall. We're incredibly lucky that baserunning gaffe didn't cost us the game. 

    Yeah, they good.  

    Hopefully we can use Hunter's miscue as a teaching point to never let that happen again.  But's it's happened multiple times this year.  Just total brainfarting out there.
