Arrow UCLA Texas & UCLA NW

You can learn a ton watching these games
It is amazing whe you see these High Level Blues making some of the same goofs that I as a 2nd year ump made.

Making a call before the play is over.
In UCLA Texas PU called Duran safe when F2 dropped the ball on the tag Way before Duran touched the plate. Case of PU being focused on the tag and the ball but not waiting for the paly to conclude. HAd the ball dropped straight to the ground, F2 would have had time to pick it up and apply the tag. Then he is faced with changing the call

In UCLA NW The HBP situation. Even after confering, I think they missed it but I have missed some as well, even after conferring.

I envy those of you who know and have worked with these blues: that has to be a great learning experience for you as well.
