Operational
The league announces referees at approximately 9:00 am EST each morning and the data operations team will enter them as soon as possible after they are announced. A Crew Chief, Referee, and Umpire will be assigned for each game. In some instances, an Alternate referee will also be assigned. The team will monitor the status of each game's Referee Assignments in case of any unforeseen circumstances that prevent a referee from officiating in the game.
