Thanks for all the replys-

I think after reading everything he was in the generally accepted area, but he was not paying attention to the leads of the runners. He was basically right where my runners were feeling comfortable, forcing them to take either too far or too short a lead. Instead of asking him to move his postion completely, I'll just ask him to move perhaps two more steps to his right. As for the shortstop, he'll just have to deal with it. If the umpire bent down a little there wouldn't be a problem, so maybe I'll ask him to do that. The shortstop is 5'7 and the umpire close to 6'3, so he was having problems tracking the pitcher on the pickoff attempt. Since that only happens once, twice a game, it's not a huge deal. Thanks
