Perhaps, after working with you, he sees the need for a multitude of additional training in all areas.
UIC has not seen me do that plate, ever.

I have worked the plate some this season for baseball, as well as softball, not much difference between the too. When i have worked the plate, its been nothing but positive comments from the other umpires.

Ive worked the 60' with him multiple times, and too many time w/ other umpires LOL. Im doin well, and almost have mastered it. Now, of course on the 90', my first game, im going to have to improve. Now, i have another question requarding that, how do you play the B and C positions? He had me closer to the mound then to second base. Do you agree??
