The boys in blue were on the same wavelength last night.
The two-man crew working the little league softball game between Central and North Whidbey Tuesday in Coupeville worked as smoothly as any umpire tandem we’ve seen this year.
And why not?
The game offered Jim Wheat, the head of umpires for Central Whidbey Little League, a chance to work alongside his son Joel.
So, basically it was take your kid to work day, but with an adult twist.
