Welcome to the Frontier League History message board. Please feel free to share your stories and opinions about the Frontier league. Comments and memories from past and present Frontier League players is especially welcome!
Face it, the FL is a minor, minor league and it's unrealistic to expect the level of officiating to exceed the level of the play. Having said that, even a Little League umpire should recognize a deliberate attempt to injure another player. As we saw the next night, letting goons get away with cheap shots just emboldens them to keep it up.
If player safety isn't a concern of the umpires, then the league should replace them.
