And,

Matt:

Just wondered if you noticed anything more about the BU at your game?

My MiLB contact has said that there are two additional requirements for BUs that are being tested:

1) As a pitch is delivered the BU (when working inside the diamond) is required to be moving towards the next "potential" play . . . by the time F2 returns the ball to F1 the BU is required to be back to his initial position and,

2) All "first calls" (with the exception of the double play pivot activity) are to be made by the BU at the edge of the cutout of the base. Any second call made in the infield is to be made from the working area behind the mound.

I just wondered if you noticed these activities?



Regards,
