Anytime you know an official/referee/umpire's name, they have failed. They should be just as nameless and faceless as they can be. I know, I know flamboyant behavior has always been part of a baseball umpire's schtick. I still fondly remember going to Royals games growing up and listening to Dutch Rennert (sp) scream out the count at the top of his lungs.......
