Whoa, big guy.
Don't miquote me. I have never been to PBUC. Some of our association members have, but I haven't been that fortunate.
What I said was: "this is exactly what I see the recent PBUC grads do at the local Single A games."
They may do cover this in pregame, or have come to agreement on it as a permanent crew, or have picked it up from wherever, or learned it at PBUC. I don't know why they do it. I can't even say all of the crews do it, as I only see about a dozen games a year.
However, the MiLB umpires that I see do it, are indeed first and second year grads.
