Some would have a chance to be an upgrade over Pop.

Remember that Bill Veeck allowed his picked fans to manage a game for the Browns. They had “yes” and “no” placards whenever a managerial decision was called for. I believe that the Browns won that game.11WSChamps wrote: ↑09 Apr 2025 18:28 pm Give a fan a chance at every home game to be 3rd base coach for the night.

What would be fun to watch is the 'fan' in the coaching box .. 90 ft away watch a Jordan Walker type guy turn on a fastball whizzing it 105 MPH down the 3rd baseline foul and the fan bailing out, falling down , getting up and saying OK , who is next ? I did my time standing here a sitting duck ! lol NEXT ?11WSChamps wrote: ↑09 Apr 2025 18:28 pm Give a fan a chance at every home game to be 3rd base coach for the night.

Even more hilarious would be a fan putting oh homeplate ump gear and calling balls/strikes on 95- 100 MPH pitches .. That would be hilarious watching at home the ball way out of the box called a strike.. a ball hitting the corners called a ball . BLown calls of runners sliding into home plate.
OH 1st base umpiring would be laughable too on the bang bang plays on throws to first.
