If I use this season as a gauge, I was on the first game of the season that I worked the plate.

Honestly, I think the job we do is mostly subjected to the pitchers we have on the bump. I really think we are at their mercy more what the pitchers do as compared to how good we are behind the plate. If you have a pitcher that is all over the place it is really hard to look good at all.

In my case this year some of my early plate games were all college games and calling the game was very easy. The pitchers understood what they wanted to do and executed.

Peace
