Any thoughts on the origin and benefits to anyone other than the tournament organizers of a pay at the plate structure? I’m guessing it’s simply a way to give the false appearance of a lower tournament cost—but maybe I’m missing a benefit.
I know we have some umpires on this forum. Is it somehow preferred for you be paid directly by each different team instead of just receiving a lump payment from the tournament director?
From a team standpoint it is so much simpler to just cut one check to the organization holding the tournament instead of a check to them and then needing to make six individual payments to umpires at the start of every game.
