DO you follow the ball to the base???
Good Morning,
Well I just did my first Varisty Level Fall Ball game this weekend with 2 very close and good teams. I have done other JV games this year as well and some JR Legion 17 AND UNDER. My question is I found myself 2nd guessing some of my calls during and after the game the plate umpire said I did a good job but...... On steals and other base calls do you guys follow the ball all the way to the base and aquire the the runner or do you focus the base and aquire the runner and ball when they come into view. I know you should allways watch the ball because of the obiovous but.. I think that as the level of ball gets better things change a bit so I would like your thoughts as to how other HS VARSITY and higher umps get it done.
Thanks Mike
