Last night I'm working the dish with my assignor, who also happens to be the guy locally who recommends you to the JUCO/small college evaluators around here. He doesn't evaluate himself, but he's like the local mafia boss who tells the big Don to have a look.

So, game's over, we're doing the post game and I ask- "Tell me what I need to do different."

Answer: "Don't put your indicator in your ball bag after every pitch. It makes you look fidgety."

Of course, I was cliniced five years ago or so to start putting my clicker in my ball bag after every pitch. I am used to it now and I like it- I think it keeps me in the game better and keeps me from scarring up my mask with the indicator.

No, I can't work without one. I'll lose pitches.

And I know, if I want to do the next level around here, I have to do what makes these guys happy.

It still frustrates me.

Ok, done now.

Strikes and outs!

At what kind of clinic were you told to put your indicator in your ball bag between pitches?

I can imagine it might make one look, oh, how could I put it....."fidgety."

Listen to the assignor.
