I know you are totally anal, Garth, but it really is unneccesary to call Time when cleaning the plate.

Hensley, you might call games with your brown eye, butt the rest of us don't. I believe that the base umpire would call those balks, pickoffs, steals, or whatever else could possibly occur during the 5-10 seconds it takes to clean the plate.

You people make it too hard.

Tee, I realize that you are a member of a fine group of umpires, and I never meant to imply in any way that San Diego umpires were any better than any others. Umpires are umpires.

If we all agreed on everything, it would sure be a boring forum.
Chill Steve. Save the name calling for one of your other sites.

I didn't take the time to investigate the SDCBUA, because it didn't interest me and was not germane to the issue. Now that I know it is simply a local association, it is of even less interest.

I really don't care if you or anyone calls time or not. I never put down anyone for doing it one way or another. My participation in this thread was prompted by my memories of training and my interest in getting the correct information, which, if you have read my immediate previous post, you will see that thanks to Bobby and JEAPU I now have.

That is the where my curiousity lies, Steve, in finding the correct answer, whether I had it previously or not. Not in the history of a local association. I don't mind having been incorrect, if I can find out what is right

Enjoy your evening.
