and BTW....Joe Brinkman, Montague and Froemming all are still working this year...Froemming HAS to be shooting for Bill Klem's record by now...there can be no other explaination....

I don't even call a pitch at the letters a strike in HS baseball much less expect it to be called in MLB.
Hey they made it to MLB, they have to be pretty good to do that. As far as some umpires I like better than others, but most of the time its their personality that bothers me.
I'll let the coaches worry about their calls.
Thanks

I've made a concerted effort to bring up the top of my zone the past two seasons. The NCAA wants that pitch called, so I'm calling it in college AND high school games.
