This was only my second year as an ump. Im hooked! I love baseball and i love being an ump. I learned so many things about people and myself. I learned what it takes to get the respect umpires deserve. It takes guts to be an ump and i respect all of you very much. ive got so many stories about games i called ( some are embarrassing) I would do it for free. I think i learned the most about myself and how you have to push yourselves and stay focused every second your on the diamond. There was many times i was so tired and so hot i could of just fell asleep right there behind homeplate but i knew that to get the respect everyone in blue deserves i had to stay in there and do my job and it was definetly worth it. Thanks for all your help! I hope all of you had as a rewarding and successful season as i did!
