Thumbs up in Camden

Today's laurel goes to the grounds crew, umpires and weather man at Campbell's Field in Camden.
Despite steady rain from the first inning on, the Somerset Patriots and Riversharks were able to squeak in five innings to make the game official without injury to any player.
It was made possible by a great job by the grounds crew, bringing fresh dirt out to the batter's box and pitcher's mound between every half-inning.
The umpires showed the necessary patience, and were smart enough to go to delay as soon as the fifth inning was completed. To make their job easier, the rain did pick up severely before the sixth, justifying that point for the delay.
With all the bad press the Atlantic League has received in recent days, this is one VERY LITTLE well-done job.
