"Again, I'm wondering why others don't do it."

You do the announcing and we'll do the officiating. Once again, the ONLY reason location is asked for is because it is an indirect way to argue Balls and Strikes. I don't allow it.

Now if a coach happens to come to me after the inning or game and say "hey Blue , what happen on that pitch", I will probably say something like "it dropped the last minute", "I thought it was a little to far out", "the catcher came up on me", "I missed it coach". Why , because thats what the guy REALLY wanted to know in the first place. If you can't grasp that, then you really need to start umpiring a little and find what everyone here already knows.
