Banana Ball is rolling into Midland, Texas, with a wild three-game showdown between the Texas Tailgaters and the Party Animals at Momentum Bank Ballpark — and it’s drawing national attention. Local umpires from Midland, San Angelo, and Abilene are stepping in, led by Craig Kolls of TASO, who’s not just officiating but giving back to his West Texas roots. What makes this event special? Kolls was signing autographs — unheard of for an umpire — showing just how electric the buzz is. But behind the fun? A nationwide officiating shortage is hitting every level of play, from little league to the pros. If you’re ready to lace up and call the plays, TASO is actively recruiting — visit taso.org to get started.
