My father (1927-2012) used to umpire in local Trenton, NJ various league games in the 50's and early 60's. He always said that the easiest umpiring job he ever had was behind the plate when Downing pitched in the Trenton Industrial League ...... He recalled that all he had to do was stand there and say: Strike !!
