Navy ballbag as I was using a black ballbag to go with the navy shirt before. Umpire number. A couple bottles of some really nice shoe polish. And an awsome patented black leather belt which very few people have. One less thing to hold me back from university ball.

Looking right gets you to the first pitch. After that you're on your own... Besure you know what you're doing down to the last rule and mechanic. A Patent leather belt will do you no good if you're out of position to make a call.
