Here in LL, we do not go out on fly balls, PU job to call them. There for there is not much of a rotation, unless theres runners, 3 man crew, etc... I need to be given a chance to work both ends of it, not just master the bases. I also found i do a better job umpiring when im "under pressure" and working more competative games.
