Tom,

You are the man in your area, just as all of the rest of you vets are in your area. We see you doing the championships, the high school playoffs, and even the NCAA games. Being a guru can be a burden.

If I'm at a plate conference with you and your partner and he explains something wrong and you don't say anything, then I assume I am wrong and go tell my co-coaches we misunderstood the rule. "The BLUES just told me at the plate conference we have been incorrectly using the CR."

Later, when I follow the incorrect CR rules, and the umps call me on it, I'm going to say, "but Tom said........"

In your sitch, I will leave it to you to decide if you should correct the other ump at the conference, but you should definitely get it corrected in his mind and the coaches mind at your earliest opportunity.
