Short and sweet for you. Umpire for 20 years, get to know the game AND the rules, and if you're lucky you'll get to know some MLB umpires for whom you'll have a great deal of respect for their level of expertise. But it'll take you 20 years.
Anybody can write here about the infield fly rule. It's a lot more educational to pick knowledgeable brains for the whys and wherefores of situations. I'd rather be able to explain a call by the book than try to bluff my way through a situation in a big game.
P.s. They're all big games.
