Hmmm,

We normally have between 160 and 180 umpires in our association.

We are short of umpires.

Umpires are assigned by an assigning secretary to work games. The assignor directs who works the plate and who is on the bases.

You do not change that assignment, ever.

All umpires are required to work both plates and bases as assigned. We would NEVER pay an umpire a bonus to work the plate. It is their job. If they do not do it then they do not work.

We are also paid for games by the association and are given 1099's at seasons end. All umpire fees are reported to the state and federal government as required by law. All umpires I know claim all their income.

Pretty simple in my area.
