But the same guy assigns them all and for fall ball, its the only stuff thats around. And he rotates us all around.

Its actually not bad ball minus the uptight coaches and crazy parents. |
Call a bigger zone in these games, not as high as the shoulder, but at least 6 inches above the belly button. I have also been called a low strike umpire, but nobody complains they just adjust. It's the hollow beneath the knee thing so I call it.
Be more generous with strikes at this level and the games will move faster, ("he's going to call that pitch every time Johnny, you have to swing the bat"), and there will be no stalkers in the parking lot.
